    I was wondering about my grammar. Some of you know that I am deaf so I need some help with my grammar.

    Which one is right?

    1) Do you work Downtown?

    2) Do you work at Downtown?

    Thanks!

    1 is corrrect if you are referring to "downtown" as a generic term for the central part of a city, in which case it is not capitalized, i e downtown Seattle. If you work at a business called "Downtown" 2 is correct, with the capital in downtown.

    Correct answer:

    1) Do you work Downtown?..

    Now that I fixed your Grammer..

    I can Fix your Gramper too..

    .................... ...OUTLAW

    Number 1 is correct, at least in American usage.

    I say that because preposition use varies in some cases among English-speaking countries, eg. "I like to play golf on weekends"=American / "I like to play golf at weekends"=British

    "at" would be if it was a specific place
