Answer 2

I am going to see my parents on this weekend. -This is the answer.

Explanation:

• Prepositions are words that relate the position of noun with the rest of the sentence. They tell about the posture of it.
• Some of the prepositions include: on, in, into, up, down, behind, near, over, beside, beneath, etc.,
• In the given sentence the noun is 'weekend'. We need to use an apt preposition to relate this word with the rest of the sentence.
• 'On' and 'at' both are right to be used here. 'On this weekend' is preferred in American English, whereas, 'at this weekend' is used in British English.
• 'During' can also be used if the day -whether it is on Saturday or Sunday- is not known.
• So the most appropriate and widely used preposition for this sentence is 'on'.
• Therefore the answer is: I am going to see my parents on this weekend.
