Grammar mistake of the week - On vs With

by

Yesterday, I said, "I hit my nail with the microwave," whereas I should have said, "I hit my nail on the microwave."

“With” = using something as a tool

Example: I hit the ball with a bat.

“On” = striking something against a surface

Example: I hit my head on the door
