in or on the stairs
Is there any differences between in the stairs and on the stairs? I have seen both. And which one is the best if you are referring to someone who is standing there?
On Another subject. How do you called a Tshirt without sleeves and with straps for hot summers? Is it a top with straps?
Thanks

Hi what is your name

You would only say "in the stairs" if something was physically inside of the staircase — quite rare. Otherwise, it would be "on the stairs." I am standing on the stairs, we are sitting on the stairs, the suitcase is on the stairs, etc.
The styles are slightly different, but it would be a "tank top" (occasionally just "tank") or a "sleeveless tee". Do a Google Image Search to see the difference.
