The prepositions between vs. among are easily confused. And for good reason. Sometimes both between and among can be used correctly in a sentence.

However, depending on the use of these English prepositions, you need to choose one or the other.

Getting them right is important for accuracy in conversation. Moreover, exams such as the IELTS and TOEFL often test your understanding of these easily confused words in English.

Although sometimes similar, the prepositions between vs. among also have distinct differences.

In this grammar-focused Confident English lesson, you'll learn exactly when and how to use the prepositions between and among so you always get them right.

This includes
- Using between and among as prepositions of place
- Using either between or among to talk about something shared
- Distinct uses of the preposition between
- Distinct uses of the preposition among

Plus, you'll get practical examples of these prepositions in English and simple advice to follow when you're not sure which word to choose.

At the end, I have a quick quiz to test your know-how on whether to use between or among.
