Posted on: Turn in Your Homework
February 4, 2011 at 5:15 AMIt is a subtlety between British and American English. In Australia I grew up 'handing in' my homework and 'turning in' stolen goods to the police.
"Turn in" form the Longman Dictionary:
British English: to give something to a person in authority, especially an illegal weapon or something lost or stolen.
American English: to give a piece of work you have done to a teacher, your employer etc [= hand in British English]
Learn something new everyday.
