@leoardqueen7 Thank you! So both terms are correct? "in her" or "by her"?
- English (US)
@lauradenerim So, if you want to talk about being stuck and trapped somewhere you would use “by her” but if you want to talk about being stuck next to her or inside of her (like a rose bush) then you would use “in her”
- English (US)
by her indicates that you are trapped because of her and in her is you are trapped inside of her. you can use both but it depends on the context :)
