Prepositions in, on and at
Hello :) Maybe someone can help me to understand the correct use of in, at and on.
Do you say:
"Look at your phone you've got a message" or is it "Look on your phone.."?
"Have a nice start in your workday" or "Have a nice start at your workday"?
"Would you like to talk via skype on the phone" or "Would you like to talk via skype at your phone"?
Or is there maybe a better way to say these things?

1. We would say "look at you phone."
2. We would avoid the word "workday" and say "have a nice day at work" or something like that.
3. We would say "on the phone."

1. 'Look at your phone' refers to the physical object. 'Look at [something] ' means take your eyes off one thing and turn them towards something else. You look at your phone in the same way as you look at a picture or look at a magazine or look at a menu. 'Look at' is a standard combination of verb and preposition.
3. 'Talk on the phone' refers to the technology. We often use 'on' to refer to media and means of communication - on TV, on the radio, on the internet, on Skype.
