How do you tell if it is'by' the or 'at' the???

[Yerrick]

'Vid', I believe, generally has the meaning of 'by'.

what's the difference between'by' and 'next to' in Swedish?

[Steph862888]

I think next to or beside would be "brevid"

Is the hotel near by the airport? Could be right sentence.

[IanWitham1]

Welsh does not have prepositions, so people whose first language is Welsh say "The hotel is near by the airport," and "The pub is up at the castle." The English say, "The hotel is near the airport, "The hotel is by the airport", "The pub is near the castle," and "The pub is opposite the castle."

[JimmieHill]

why marked wrong if I say 'beside the airport' - vid platsen is beside - who says 'by the airport'?
