" In English, the word "home" all by itself is used to mean "to my place", "to my home". Because the idea of "to" is included in the word "home" in this sentence, we don't say "I went to home" because that would mean "I went to to my home". Don't forget to capitalize 'I'!

The correct one is "I went home."
In English, the word "home" all by itself is used to mean "to my place", "to my home".
Because the idea of "to" is included in the word "home" in this sentence, we don't say "I went to home" because that would mean "I went to tomy home".
