2012年1月7日 · Hello, everyone. This time, I'd like to ask you about date notation. I wrote #1, but one of my friends corrected it to #2. #1. Japanese people have a custom of eating seven-herb rice porridge on the morning of January 7. #2. Japanese people have a custom of eating seven-herb rice porridge on...

2017年2月27日 · If they say "As of January, we had 2000 full-time employees.". Could "as of January" mean any date on January? Or it means last day of the month by default? In my opinion, if my company had 2000 employees on Jan. 15th, I would say "as of January" no matter what.

2017年7月10日 · 1. I will be there at 1 to 2 january. 2. I will be there on 1 to 2 january. Hello everyone, I want to ask you about the use of exact preposition of time. From both sentences which one is the correct one, because I find it hard to differentiate them, usually "on" is used for month and date, and "at" for precise time. So, any explanation of it ...

2011年3月11日 · Good question. It would really depend on your intonation. If you mean, "on the afternoons of Monday, Wednesday and Friday," then you would not put very much of a pause between the names of the days.

2013年5月17日 · Hi everyone, I have checked some other threads and didn´t find a specific opinion on this, other than saying that both are correct and can be used indistinctly. Here are some examples: The shop will be open from 9am until/to 8pm. I usually go to the gym from 1pm until/to 2pm. The celebration...

2017年5月3日 · Hello, I have difficulties understanding the difference in use of these four tenses when it comes to arriving or departing to/from places. For instance, I arrive at the main station tomorrow morning I am arriving at the airport next Saturday I …

2007年6月7日 · “As of 1 January 2010” means from that date forward, and is synonymous with the less common “as from”; “as at 1 January 2010” means on that exact date and is mainly used in formal and financial writing. Prefer “on” to “as at” in most writing. → As of 1 January 2010 the ICRC has 12 offices in the country.

2020年8月7日 · You are correct with the first two, but there is no need for "on" to be so precise here. This sentence is looking backwards in time; the person clearly didn't hand in the composition on or before December 30 th (otherwise neither "by" or "before" would be appropriate either), and it would be fine (and commonplace) for the person saying this sentence to use …

2007年10月17日 · Thanks. The "been" was left out, I have corrected. After I search the goole with "It has been a long time since", I find that most examples are this: it has been a long tiem since+past tense.
