 Re: "stay at home" and "stay home"?
I think it's a difference between BE and AE. In BE we use the preposition. I've only ever heard AE speakers use the expression without the preposition.
In BE we say: I stayed at home last night. I usually stay at school for lunch. I stayed at work late last night. I stayed at a hotel when I was in Brighton. We use a preposition (not always 'at') with the verb stay. |
