    Across / through
    Message from pavca posted on 29-08-2013 at 13:29:23 (D | E | F)
    Hello,

    Difference between: across - through
    I am afraid I can't understand the difference in using these prepositions properly.
    Could you help me? Using some examples or idioms?
    Thank you,
    Pavca

    Hello,
    "Across" is used for a surface.
    "Through" is used for a volume.
    For example, you go across the street, but you go through the forest or a bush.
    Is it clearer ? I hope so.
    Have a nice day
