Answer:

mark me brainliest please

Explanation:

Here, home is used as an adverb of place. Adverbs of place tell you where an action happened, happens, or will happen. For example, “I jumped up. / The wind blows south. / The girl will turn around.” Up/south/around tell you where you jumped, where the wind blows, and where the girl turned.

Let’s look at the sentence, “The wind blows south.” Here, south is not a location (a noun). It’s a direction, just like up and around. You may be used to seeing adverbs that end in ~ly (quickly, beautifully). If it helps, think of the meaning of this sentence as “The wind blows southernly.” “I jumped up” also has a meaning like “I jumped upwardly.” But it’s fine to say “The wind blows south. / I jumped up.” Not all adverbs end in ~ly.

Now, back to “The man went home.” In this sentence, think of home as a direction. It would be the same as “The man went homewardly,” except that homewardly is not a word! So, when we talk about the direction of your house, we use home.

“He sailed home. / He looked home. / He went home.” He may not be going to his house, but he is going in that direction. Here home is an adverb of place (just like up, down), so we do not use a preposition (to, at, in, from, etc).
