stupid grammar question

[ragazzo]

"good luck on" versus "good luck with"

are they grammatically interchangeable? if not, elaborate.

 

[Chunkee]

think about transitive verbs

I guess "Good luck with your test" makes sense, but it's certainly not interchangeable with "Good luck your test".

And "good luck with" doesn't stand on it's own as a phrase like "good luck" does.

"on"

"good luck with your test" vs. "good luck on your test"

You missed a word

"Good luck" by itself isn't a sentence anyway.

The CORRECT usage would be something like, "I wish you good luck with your test."
