Grammar
Use of 'TO' with house/home
Why we use sentences like 'I am going home' but for house we use 'I am going to house' ?
Top answer
I'm going home suggests "you're going to your own house, that is your home" Anonymous but for house we use 'I am going to a house' ? Although, it's grammatically correct, it sounds a little weird. The sentence written above doesn't tell you which house the speaker's going to.
