"at event" vs. "on event"

What is a better preposition for the word "event"?

  • at
  • on

Specifically I want to say:

  • Lector at an event
  • Lector on an event

Which is the correct one?


Solution 1:

'Lector' is an unusual word in modern English. I assume you mean 'read' as one might read a lesson at a church service.

Did you perhaps mean 'lecture'?

If I say 'lecture at an event', that means to give a talk to a gathering of people at an event.

If I say 'lecture on an event', that means to give a formal talk about what happened at a particular event, at some other time and place.

Does that help?
