The Subject is the core component of a sentence in English language. It is the 'thing' that is being talked about or described in the sentence. The subject can be the noun, pronoun, or noun phrase that performs the action of the verb. For example: The girl is eating her food: The subject here is the 'girl' as she is the one who is doing the action, that is, eating her food.

Grammatically, in home and at home are correct. However, their usage varies in terms of context. The use of 'at home' shows something or someone is located in the home. However, 'in home' describes something that happens in the home. For more clarity, have a look at the examples below:

  • At home: I left the keys at home.
  • In home: The keys are placed over the refrigerator in home.

In and at are the prepositions of place in English grammar. The preposition 'in' is used to describe a place with is inside a bigger space and for referring to country, states and cities. For example, The candies are kept in the box. On the other hand, the 'at' preposition describes the precise location, map location, place of work, street address and for event. For example, The pawn shop is at the corner of the street.
