When to use 和 and 对 for “With” and “To”
和 and 对 can work as prepositions: they come before a person, and the pair goes before the main verb. 和 + person means “with”: you and that person do the action together, as in 我和朋友一起去. 对 + person means “to” or “toward”: it shows who your words, look or attitude are aimed at, as in 老师对我们说 or 他对我很好. Words like 不, 想 and 也 go before 和 or 对: 我不想和他一起去.
老师对我们说：“明天见！”
The teacher said to us, “See you tomorrow!”
他对我很好。
He is very good to me.
我不想和他一起去。

よくある間違い

- Calling or doing something for someone uses 给: 给妈妈打电话, not 对妈妈打电话.
