We stayed in home all day and watched movies.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: B

Explanation

Correct Answer: at
Explanation
• The preposition 'at' is idiomatically paired with 'home' when referring to being inside or remaining at one's dwelling (e.g., stay at home, be at home).
• The preposition 'in' is not used before the noun 'home' without a determiner (like in a home).
• Therefore, replacing 'in' with 'at' makes the sentence grammatically correct.
Correct Sentence: We stayed at home all day and watched movies.
