That is why I believe among is "better" than "to" But I agree, to sounds like you were lazy and handed one of you friends the candy (which means that one way or another, the group got candy). So we agree that to also works. | |

| Jun 21, 2016 at 5:05 | comment | added | Cardinal | I think "among" implies that every single person will least have a sweet. However, to me, ''to'' sounds like you were not very meticulous in the distribution. Perhaps, I am wrong. Am I right? | |
