有讀者朋友在我們的“用戶留言”問，playground前用介詞on還是in，我們查到手頭的一本金盾出版社出版的《英語(yǔ)基礎(chǔ)詞匯用法詞典》(周貞雄編著)，該書認(rèn)為：表示“在運(yùn)動(dòng)場(chǎng)上”或“在操場(chǎng)上”，playground前既可用介詞in也可用介詞on，但以用in為普通，并舉如下：
The children were all in [on] the playground. 孩子們都在操場(chǎng)上。
They are playing baseball in the playground. 他們?cè)谶\(yùn)動(dòng)場(chǎng)上打棒球。
The sports meeting was held on the playground. 運(yùn)動(dòng)會(huì)在操場(chǎng)上舉行。
