When the object is a person, the preposition 'at' is required: yell at someone. 'Yell to someone' means calling out so they can hear you, not shouting in anger.

常見錯誤

I yelled to him to stop stealing.
I yelled at him to stop stealing.
💡'yell at' expresses anger or strong command; 'yell to' means shout to be heard.
He yelled me from across the street.
He yelled to me from across the street.
💡'yell' needs a preposition ('to' or 'at') before an object person.
