| Is there any chance that "to be home" or "I'm home" instead of "at hom" could be correct (written English and/or spoken English)? Thank you |

| Hello Constantinos In British English, you say "I'm home" when you have just arrived home. For instance, you might call someone, after a journey, to say that you've arrived home safely: 1. I just called to say I'm home! You use "at home" for any other situation: 2. I'm at home today. 3. Is there anyone at home? 4. "Where's your husband?" "Oh, I left him at home." I don't know whether it's different in American English, though. MrP |
