Allan Conn	BS: More on transAtlantic distinctions (200* d)	RE: BS: More on transAtlantic distinctions	02 Jun 16
Mkeben it isn't true that all Brits drop the preposition! It is very much in use in Scotland not just in Scots but in Scottish Standard English too. Many do say "I am going to the school - or going to my bed - or I have the cold" etc. There are numerous forms of speech, accents ad dialects etc so the generalisations often don't hold.
