Think about the very subtle idioms we have.
You are at school. You are at church.
You are at the hospital. (Unless you're British.)
People who have little money are poor. People who have a little money are not.
Does anyone use or hear the word "boughten," meaning "purchased"?
What about the phrase, "dead nuts," meaning spot on? Where did "spot on" come from, anyway?
