標題Re: [請益] on/at the farm 到底哪個介係詞才對？
時間Thu Apr 1 22:17:01 2010
I got one response from a native speaker (Dave Phillips) on an EFL forum www.englishforums.com.

He was at the farm - he was staying there.
He was on the farm - he was working there.
Hope his explanation can shed new light on how to understand better the collocation of "on/at the farm".
Thanks a lot for Dunchee's suggestion about the website and all the comments from PTT buddies.
Many thanks really really.
Hector
