cover with and cover in Dear teachers,
I know I can say 'to cover something with something'. But I come across a sentnece:
The cat is covered in blood.
Could you please explain why 'in' is used here?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Thank you in advance.

Teacher Re: cover with and cover in We can use either 'with' or 'in' with 'covered'.
