Nuala's Grammar Explanation:Time prepositions
Nuala: Hi! we heard three different prepositions; at, in and on. We use these
prepositions when we're talking about time but we use each one with different time
expressions. Listen again:
Finn: In the morning, at 3 o'clock.
Elena: In 2004.
Diarmuid: At midnight, on Christmas Day.
Carrie: In December.
We use 'at' for times of the day. At half past 7, at midnight, at sunset at breakfast time.
Finn: At 3 o'clock
Diarmuid: At midnight
We use 'on' for days and dates. On the 5th of June, on Tuesdays, on Saturday morning.
Diarmuid: On Christmas day.
We use 'in' for longer periods of time like months, years, seasons. In April, in 1987, in
the winter of '76.
Elena: In 2004
Carrie:In December
Finally, there are some time expressions that don't use any prepositions at all. Words like
'next', 'last', 'today', 'tomorrow' or 'yesterday'.
Diarmuid: Next Christmas we’re going on a cruise.
That's all from me, good luck with your grammar challenge!
