Hello, native English speakers.
I have a new question.
An American friend of mine says, "'study hard' is quite common in speech
and in writing, but I'm not used to seeing 'study English hard'".
She also says that "study hard at English" would be used.
I'd like to know other native speakers' views about it.
Do you say
(a) They study English (very) hard.
or
(b) They study (very) hard at English.
?
Thanks in advance.
