Hey, Maybe you can explain, when we use IN, when AT in sentences. Thank u!
 
Hey. Maybe Can you can explain no comma here when we use IN "in" no comma here when AT and "at" in sentences?

Thank you!
Welcome to the forum.

Please note my corrections above. Don't use textspeak/chatlish on the forum. There is no such word as "u".

Your question is far too wide-ranging. We can't explain entire vocabulary/grammar points here. I suggest you provide us with three or four sentences in which you're not sure whether to use "in" or "at" and we can try to help.

Make sure you read lots of good quality English writing to help with your English studies. The more you read, the more you'll start to spot patterns in English.
 
Thank you.

Example:

Today I walked in the park with my uncle. i do not know when to use "in" and "at", if I want to say, that I was walking in the park
 
So far so good. You can walk to the park, around the park, through the park or in the park, but not at the park.
 
Different prepositions have different very basic meanings so you can take a generalised approach to a question like this.

Very basically, in relates to two- and three-dimensional space. So if you imagine yourself to be inside the park, with a sense of being contained within its perimeter, then in is appropriate.
