Now it’s your turn. Here’s your audio pronunciation quiz. The Wall Street Bull is not on Wall Street. In this quiz, you will find out where he is. Be sure to visit him when you come to New York.
Right. I live in Sloatsburg, New York. There are 3,000 residents of Sloatsburg, but in the summer lots of tourists come to go hiking in the state park next to Sloatsburg.
Thinking about the largeness of different parts of the metropolis I made a mistake choosing the wrong preposition for Manhattan, “on” instead of “in”. Even though Broadway is a huge chunk of the Big Apple, it doesn’t have self-governing elements as Manhattan. Manhattan is a borough. Broadway is a big street.
You live on a quiet street in a small village norch of New York city

You got it. Broadway is a street. Manhattan is a part of the city…one of the five boroughs.
Why incorrect?
Thank you. It was very helpful for me.
Hi again,
Good. Prepositions are a pain in the neck in other languages, too.
