التعريف
To begin working, participating, or acting in a place, job, activity, or role. In entertainment, it can also mean to have a main acting role.
الاستخدام والفروق الدقيقة
'Start in' is often used for careers ("start in marketing"), industries ("start in tech"), or acting roles ("start in a movie"). It is less common in casual speech about locations (use 'start at' for precise places). In entertainment, 'star in' (not 'start in') means to be the featured actor—learners often confuse these.
