Best Answer

It depends on what you're trying to communicate. "Run inthe street" describes a runner or jogger trotting within the confines of a public thoroughfare. "Run on the street" means any person, conducting the majority of their life (including passing the night there sleeping on an occasional, if not frequent basis), primarily in open, public places, or those immediately adjoining them. "Run on the street" can also be a description of an automobile, which is operated there rather than "Run on a track, or closed course."

Which is right in the street or on the street?

Both "in the street" and "on the street" can be correct, depending on the context. Use "in the street" when referring to being inside the actual space of the street (e.g. walking in the middle of the street), and "on the street" when referring to being on the surface of the street (e.g. standing on the sidewalk next to the street).


Do you say the street or avenue first in Manhattan?

In Manhattan, the convention is to say the street first and then the avenue. This is because the street grid in Manhattan runs east-west, while the avenues run north-south. For example, if you were referring to a location at the corner of 42nd Street and 5th Avenue, you would say "42nd Street and 5th Avenue" in that order.
