  • Both are correct. Depends on the context. 

  • Another example of how "I am home" or "I am at home" can be used:

    Imagine that someone phones you up and asks: Where are you right now?

    Your answer: I am home.

    The person says: Really? I don't believe it.

    Then you can say: If you believe me or not, I am at home. (In this example, it's used as reinforcement in your statement.)

     

  • I am not at home in English.

  • The two sentences are correct. The difference is syntactic. When I say, (I am at home) the word home is used as a noun. On the other hand when I say, (I am home), here, the word home is used as an adverb. Usually, when we use the answer (I am at home), we are asking about the whereabouts of the person. When I talk about my own home, no need for the preposition "to". I hope this helps.

    • Sorry,  I meant the preposition "at"

    • Absolutely correct, no need to use the preposition "to", I mean in the phrase mentioned in the question.

       

  • Oi there

       "I"m home" is used when you have wandered around the planet and finally hit ur parental threshhold and say" I'm home"

      "I am at home" is used when your life partener phones you and angrily asks:"Where are you?"...and you innocently reply" Awwwwwwww, darling, I am at home, of course!" ;-)
