  • Near to me or near me? - English Language Learners Stack Exchange
    Near to is not usually used before the name of a place, person, festival, etc Not only is near me considerably more popular than near to me in both British and American books, but a look through instances of the latter shows many Biblical quotes and other archaic language In the NOW Corpus, near me is 31 times more common
  • Confused between Near something and Near to something
    I often hear people saying 'near' without 'to', but then 'near to' is also correct For example read the following sentences: Where is your book?-Near my bed Where is Wall Mart?-Near to my house Now, can I write them like this: Where is your book? -Near to my bed Where is Wall Mart?-Near my house Help me in solving this Thank You
  • word choice - English Language Learners Stack Exchange
    I said 'regardless of distance' The woman called the ring that because it was on the other woman's finger, even though it was near I might well call something near me that if I was not holding or touching it (unless I was using this and that to compare a near and a far object) –
  • Is there any difference between sit next to someone, sit beside . . .
    "sit next to me" implies sitting in the very next seat, on one side or the other How close that is will depend on how closely the seats are spaced, however "sit beside me" often implies sitting fairly close, possibly touching "sit by me" just means sitting in my general vicinity
  • word usage - English Language Learners Stack Exchange
    -leave somebody doing something Never leave children playing near water unattended -leave somebody to something I’ll leave you to it (=go away and let you continue with what you are doing) My youngest boy has not left my side (=has stayed near me) since his daddy was killed
  • Me vs my [pronunciation] in British English
    Moreover, the vowel in 'me' (the one you're referring to) is shorter ([mi]) than that of the regular 'me' ([mi:]) and this pronuncation of 'my' is usually used where 'my' is unstressed The pronunciation of emphatic stressed 'my' was in Middle English (before the Great Vowel Shift) and its unstressed unemphatic form was [mi]
  • Difference between Its fine with me and its fine to me?
    That's fine with me This means Rachel has no objections to starting piano lessons in the fall Rachel should not answer, "That's fine to me," because, idiomatically, to is not the preposition to use in this context However, Rachel could say: That sounds fine to me We frequently find the phrase fine to me after verbs like sounds or looks
  • nearby (close by) as an adjective, a preposition, or an adverb
    [near cannot be used before a noun to refer to distance] There is one exception to this near + noun restriction: It’s perfectly acceptable to use near + noun when referring to distance in a sentence that contrasts near with far, as in this example: The near side of the garage needs a paint job, but the far side looks okay
  • word choice - What verb is used for scattering the smoke smell off of . . .
    “I started waving away the stench smoke 2 when he began smoking near me ” 1: Note that I removed "because of the smoke" for being excessively redundant 2: "stench" is highly preferred in this specific sentence, because "smoke" would be redundant, but "waving away the smoke" is a good generic phrase if you are not also specifying that
  • personal pronouns - as well as I vs as well as me - English . . .
    With another word order (like in the question) you most likely need to 'refresh' the verb (as you can see, me did is impossible): John visited the party last night as well as I did If you simply use me, John visited the party last night as well as me the sense will change to 'he visited both the party and me' (me is an object)
