Home vs. at home vs. in home

1. A and B are natural responses.
2. C is not correct. D could only be used something after it. For example " I'm in the home of Mr John Smith" - You might here this on a TV programme where the interviewer / decorator (whatever) wants to tell you about their location.
A and B mean the same thing. A can be used to announce your arrival but B can' t. B can tell people where you are at that

Thank you for answering all my questions. Your explanations are really helpful.

1. Just an additional question, do you think it's also natural to say the following?

I'm at MY home.
I'm in MY home.

I'm at THE house of Mr. John Smith. (Do you think 'in the house of...' is more natural?)

2. Is it also OK to simply say 'I'm in

Hello

I am glad that my answers helped you.

1. I think it is more natural to say " I'm at home". You do not need to say "my home" as this is assumed unless you specify that it is someone else's home. If you want to use "my" then you say " I'm at my house" - normally in this case you would stress the "my".

Hi LouiseT,

Thank you so much for your response. You've covered everything I needed to know. It was very kind of you assisting me.

If someone were to ask me the question "where are you?" I would respond "I'm at home", I would never respond "I'm home", I am British. My American colleagues tell me that they would respond "I'm home". I understand that the Americans use fewer prepositions in informal speech.

Are you the same Anonymous I wonder?

"Stuff" is singular and not countable.

Neither of these phrases are correct. As "stuff" is not countable you cannot have "many" of it.

Again, thank you, Louise, for that clarification. I think I should use "I'm at home" as you would respond to "Where are you?" because I'm in the UK, but new here.

I read from another website, a British said 'I'm home' is sometimes short for 'I'm at home'. According to him, 'I'm home' is informal. However, I'm not sure if that is correct because that answer was not verified on that web

B. I'm at home.
