SIT AT/ON/TO MY RIGHT?
|
My question is:
Is it correct to say:
Sarah was sitting at my right.
Sarah was sitting on my right.
Sarah was sitting to my right.
Thank you for your help!!

I reckon they´re all okay, although personally I �d say that Sarah was sitting on my right.
Hope that helps!
All the best,
Charles. |

as far as I know directions right and left takes "on" as a preposition.
I agree with cookingongas, however I am no native speaker like him. |

I �d say they were all correct.
Sitting to my right... usually implies some distance though like the person is a chair away... whereas the others would mean the person is beside you... normally...
