What is the proper use of in and on in english grammar or language?

To clarify this question further I'd say it's more in the meanings of the words. 'On' basically means to be on something to put simply "above" or "amongst". It also gives ownership to something in a sense (the house is ON fire, the painting ON the wall).

It also implies continuation (to go on and on)Whereas 'in' means more "to be inside" so you're IN a group, or IN control. It can also desribe what you are using to get a message across ("I wrote it IN ink"). Trouble COULD arise when you read that someone is 'on' a jury or council, and yet they are IN an organisation.In this case 'in' is more to be within something and 'on' is more to be a part of something.

Also if you have basic English knowledge your ear may be able to pick up which sounds more appropriate! Hope I helped! Ty for the question!

In = inside something (in the middle of a day etc)On = on top of something.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
