用法筆記

Unlike 'somewhere else', 'elsewhere' is one word and does not need a preposition before it: use 'go elsewhere', not 'go to elsewhere'. It appears frequently in both formal writing and everyday speech.

常見錯誤

❌I went to elsewhere for my holiday.
✅I went elsewhere for my holiday.
💡'elsewhere' already contains the meaning of 'to', so adding 'to' is redundant.
❌She looked at elsewhere for information.
✅She looked elsewhere for information.
💡verbs of seeking take 'elsewhere' directly, without a preposition.
