It must confuse English learners to hear phrases like, "I'm home", instead of "I am at home." We don't say I'm school, or I'm post office. (lemmy.world)

okay, so this means the word 'home' is actually special accross languages 😆.

and not neccessairly the home as homeland like haza in hungarian ('cause that's not even a noun (tho it is somewhat equivalent with home)), home like... your home.
