"On a lark" is something I (a native English speaker, from London, which is in England, after which the language is named) have never heard or seen written -- anywhere -- before your ill-considered and wholly-incorrect posts on this thread.
Shush.
- CyberRabbi 5y agoNot sure why new information has provoked such a personal response from you. As a native English speaker from London, have you heard of “as a lark”?
- stordoff 5y agoUsually in British English (Yorkshire, might vary by region), I just hear "It is/was/will be a lark", so I'm not sure if either is particularly common. However, I've definitely come across people using "as a lark", whereas I can't recall hearing "on a lark". I've seen it used in text, but I'm not sure how many were from British English speakers.
