1
00:00:01,280 --> 00:00:09,080
In this Granma refresh, we will quickly look at how to ask or tell of the time very useful and to have

2
00:00:09,620 --> 00:00:13,400
the ability to do so, to tell the time or to ask the time.

3
00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:14,050
Very simple.

4
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:18,230
The question for this will be what time is it?

5
00:00:18,940 --> 00:00:20,450
You can say what time is it?

6
00:00:21,050 --> 00:00:22,490
Or more casual.

7
00:00:23,030 --> 00:00:24,260
You can say, what's the time?

8
00:00:24,590 --> 00:00:26,120
It is a little bit more informal.

9
00:00:26,450 --> 00:00:27,470
And what's the time?

10
00:00:27,620 --> 00:00:28,610
What time is it?

11
00:00:29,390 --> 00:00:30,920
Both acceptable ways.

12
00:00:32,300 --> 00:00:39,310
To answer that, you just respond with it is attracted to it.

13
00:00:40,180 --> 00:00:42,020
So what time is it?

14
00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:47,240
It's 11 a.m. and when you have those.

15
00:00:48,470 --> 00:00:57,140
Even numbers, not even numbers, those numbers that are ending in just 11 or 12 or one and then zero

16
00:00:57,140 --> 00:01:03,960
zero right on time, you can add or clock if you want or you don't have to.

17
00:01:04,430 --> 00:01:06,860
So that first example, what time is it?

18
00:01:07,610 --> 00:01:08,320
It's 11.

19
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:09,980
You can stop there.

20
00:01:09,990 --> 00:01:10,520
That's fine.

21
00:01:10,880 --> 00:01:14,300
Or you can respond by saying it's 11 o'clock.

22
00:01:15,210 --> 00:01:16,170
Either one is fine.

23
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:23,970
And again, you can ask what time is it or like our second example, it can be what's the time?

24
00:01:24,900 --> 00:01:35,340
And your answer, it is or it's 17, the three of you can use those phrases from the vocabulary that

25
00:01:35,340 --> 00:01:39,570
we learned in this section and use those to give your answers.

26
00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:52,280
In this grammar refresh, we will be looking at how to use certain prepositions when talking about times

27
00:01:52,280 --> 00:02:01,400
or times of the day, the first one is we're going to use the preposition at 80 at when stating the

28
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,590
time of a specific event.

29
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:11,130
So when we're stating the time of a specific event or examples, the first one.

30
00:02:11,780 --> 00:02:15,270
Are we meeting at five o'clock today?

31
00:02:16,310 --> 00:02:25,610
This is a specific time of an event we use at are we meeting at five o'clock or Jane is leaving at twenty

32
00:02:25,610 --> 00:02:26,060
to seven.

33
00:02:26,870 --> 00:02:31,630
So this is we're using at the time of a specific event.

34
00:02:33,910 --> 00:02:41,440
The next one we're going to use the preposition in for periods of the day, OK, except.

35
00:02:42,630 --> 00:02:47,730
When we're talking about night or night, we switch back to act.

36
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,850
So let's look at our examples to see how this works.

37
00:02:51,390 --> 00:02:55,860
The first one, I'm not going to do laundry in the morning.

38
00:02:56,460 --> 00:03:00,630
And so in the morning only is a period of the day.

39
00:03:01,150 --> 00:03:02,160
But we're using it.

40
00:03:02,730 --> 00:03:05,660
I'm not going to do laundry in the morning.

41
00:03:06,480 --> 00:03:15,000
The next example will probably meet up sometime in the afternoon again the afternoon part of the day.

42
00:03:15,690 --> 00:03:16,710
But we're using in.

43
00:03:17,950 --> 00:03:20,350
What do you do in the evenings?

44
00:03:21,070 --> 00:03:25,570
So in the morning, in the afternoon, in the evenings.

45
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:28,900
The last example, though, is where we change it.

46
00:03:29,550 --> 00:03:32,790
Dave works on his project at night.

47
00:03:34,330 --> 00:03:35,170
At night.

48
00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:37,210
Or at night.

49
00:03:38,660 --> 00:03:46,880
They worked at his project at night and generally at nighttime it were at night, but again, the main

50
00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:52,610
thing here is to notice you're not using in it's not in night at.

51
00:03:54,250 --> 00:03:59,740
In the morning, in the afternoon, in the evening, at night.
