2 at the foot of与on the foot of的对错与区别
我原来以为只能说 at the foot of，不能说 on the foot of，但今天也看到有 on the foot of 的说法，请问这样说对吗？如果对，它与 at the foot of 有区别吗？

意思基本相同。例如：
They have squatted on the foot of the hills. 他们已依法在山脚下定居下来了。
《21世纪大英汉词典》
不过，on the foot of 一般跟bed 一词连用。例如：

He sat on the foot of the bed, took a Swisher Sweets from his shirt pocket.
He sat on the foot of their big bed and looked out the door down the dark hall.

输入on the foot of，共搜索出70例，数目应该不算少了，基本都是跟bed连用。

现代英语普遍使用 at the foot of ， 罕用 on the foot of, 甚至一些母语为英语的人认为没有on the foot of 这种说法。所以，建议这位网友记住 at the foot of 的用法，忽略 on the foot of 这种在现代英语中几乎被淘汰的用法。
