I understand で but I cant really tell the difference if you use を
I just learned this sentence structure.


I asked my Japanese boyfriend, he said kinda the same. I said to him does it mean that one is just saying doing something in the forest and the other one means like, running through the forest, like they are running "the" forest.
and he said yea kinda, but you can say both.


I wanna get feed back from you guys, cause you explain stuff very well. and my boyfriends not good at telling the difference between things to me.
Well, で is a particle, which can among others indicate the location of an action. You can also use the を to mark the place where a person is on move, like "I´m running through the forest" or "I´m walking in the park" or "I cross a crossroad" ...


素晴らしい日ですね
