Anonymous  +  121058 Mon, 25 Jul 05 08:00 AM (a) He walked the street listening to music. (b) He walked along the street listening to music.   Are both sentences correct? If so, which one is more commonly used and what's the difference?   Thanks in advance!   Anonymous

	Yingzhou0210  +  121065 Mon, 25 Jul 05 08:29 AM I think (B) is correct.Because when "walk" is a verb, it is used with preposition to link with the noun. Yingzhou0210 Joined on Mon, Jul 25 2005 New Member 02 ying Verbs, Prepositions, Nouns

However, if you want to be very particular about it, you'll have to write, "He walked along the street while listening to music." Here's another similar example "The hawker walked the street selling his ware." Dehbaash Joined on Wed, Jun 22 2005 Full Member 140

Hello Anonymous The expression most preferred by native speakers is "walk down the street". We discussed this kind of subject half a year ago.
