Qual é a diferença entre By myself e On my own ?
A:
@sebastian413 You could use either. But I'd use "on my own." It's more concise and to the point.
"By myself" could mean you do so in isolation. It also sounds more natural, I dont know why, I just know.
Separate from that example. "By my" can mean you do something in isolation. You're the only one.
"On my own" in some context could empower you or give/be(a) strength.
Examples:
I usually learn languages on my own (Maybe I dont like the school system. Maybe it doesn't fit my learning style. Maybe learning any other way would be a waste of valuable time).
I usually learn languages by myself (Maybe I do it in my room. Or I only do it in my car. Maybe I dont talk to native speakers)
I go rock climbing by myself (I go solo. I don't go with others. You could use my own for the point I want to get across. But by myself is more natural).
I was walking down a spooky trail in the middle of nowhere, by myself. (there was no one around)
Hopefully that helps. Take it with a grain of salt. BTW my answers history my be of use to you.
