Variations of I'm in/at/on: Usage and Examples

I'm can be used with preposition in, at, and on. When you enter a physical location like a building or a room, you would use the word 'in' with I'm. The preposition 'in' spcefies within the area, bounds or limit. You should use 'in' to denote 'inside'. For example:

Examples:

" I'm in a car. "
" I'm in New York. "
" I'm in London. "
" I'm in the bathroom. "
" I'm in the garden. "
" I'm in a house. "
" I'm in a college. "
" I'm in a mall. "

You can use 'at' to tell someone where are you currently. The word 'at' specifies the 'near the area occupied by'. For example:

" I'm at the airport. "
" I'm at the mall. "
" I'm at the office. "
" I'm at the shop. "
" I'm at home. "
" I'm at the airport. "

You can use 'in' for general location and 'at' for the specific location. For example:

" I'm in Delhi, at the conference. "
" I'm in the building, at the reception. "
" I'm in London, at the Buckingham Palace. "
Use 'in' for inside and 'at' for near. For example:
" I'm in the lift = I'm inside the lift. "
" I'm at the lift = I'm near the lift. "

The preprosition 'on' specifies the non-physical location for example time being utilized by something else. It denotes that the person is working on something.

" I'm on the job. "
" I'm on the phone call. "
" I'm on the laptop. "
" I'm on the laptop. "
" I'm on a task (project). "
" I'm on the bike. "
