01Trap 1–2: 在 is three words
在桌子上 is on the table, because the table is a surface. 在门口 is at the door, because a door is a meeting point. 在房间里 is in the room, because a room contains you. One Chinese word, three English answers — the picture decides. Students who memorize 在 = in will miss two out of three; students who picture the place get all three.
The same split hits transport: 在车上 is on the bus (you board it) but in the car (it encloses you). And 在黑板上 is on the blackboard — boards are vertical surfaces, not containers. Every time you want to write 在, pause and ask: surface, point, or container?
The book is on the desk, not in it.
在桌上 → on
The book is on the desk, not in it.
02Trap 3–4: verbs that refuse prepositions
English verbs choose their own partners, and Chinese instincts mislead. Discuss the plan — never discuss about it. Enter the room — never enter into it (unless you mean an agreement). Marry him, contact her, reach the station: direct objects, no preposition. But arrive needs one: arrive at the station, arrive in Beijing. And listen always brings to: listen to music.
Let's discuss — the plan tomorrow.
discuss + object (no preposition)
Let's discuss the plan tomorrow.
03Trap 5–6: time and direction
Time traps cluster around mornings and Mondays: in the morning but on Monday morning — the day wins. Call me at night, meet at noon. And home is special: go home, come home, arrive home take nothing at all. Writing go to home or back to home adds a word English never wants there.
Direction traps mirror them: arrive to is always wrong — arrive at small places, arrive in big ones. Get on the bus but get in the car. Wait at the bus stop, not in it. Each of these is a one-line rule; together they cover most travel and commuting sentences.
He goes — home right after work.
go home (no preposition)
He goes home right after work.
04Trap 7: marry with, divorce with
She married him — no with, no to. Divorced him, likewise. Chinese speakers add with because of 和……结婚, but English marry is transitive like discuss. Contrast this with get married to him, where to is required. One verb form drops the preposition, the other demands it: marry him, get married to him.
