Particles
Once again, I am facing problems regarding particles. I don't understand the particles that were used in the following phrases.
1. 市内で運転する drive in the city 2. 広い道を運転する drive on a wide street 3. 夜間に運転する drive at night 4. 普通のタイヤで雪道を運転する drive in snow with normal tires 5. 渋滞のなかを運転する drive in heavy traffic If number 2, 4 and 5 particles are "を" then I don't see why number 1 particle should be "で". In fact, I don't understand why 2, 4 and 5 used "を" when "に" sounds more appropriate to me. |
I would like to know if I can also alter the phrases into something like the following ones?
1. 市内に車を運転する drive in the city 2. 広い道に車を運転する drive on a wide street 3. 夜間に車を運転する drive at night 4. 普通のタイヤで雪道に車を運転する drive in snow with normal tires 5. 渋滞のなかに車を運転する drive in heavy traffic |
Or how about:
1. 市内で車を運転する drive in the city 2. 広い道で車を運転する drive on a wide street 3. 夜間に車を運転する drive at night 4. 普通のタイヤで雪道で車を運転する drive in snow with normal tires 5. 渋滞のなかで車を運転する drive in heavy traffic |
I write it the way my book describes it (but I admit that I forget this rule 100% of the times LOL).
The location over which a movement action takes place is marked by the particle を: 橋をわたる => cross a bridge あの銀行をすぎる => pass that bank この道をまっすぐ行く => Go straight in this street 三つ目の交差点を曲がる => Make a turn at the 3rd intersection I might be completely wrong, but your example I would see it more the opposite: 車で市内を運転する |
Thanks for the help, chryuop san. :)
