Summary/Abstract: Rodica Zafiu makes a statistic analysis in order to determine the frequency of use for two prepositions: "on" and "in" with the word "Internet". According to the results of a quick investigation made with the help of web browsers on some web-sites, Romanians seem to prefer the use of preposition "on " while the use of preposition" in" is better preferred by French web-navigators. Italians users prefer, according to the same statistics the preposition "on" while in English the use of the two prepositions is more balanced.
