LEARNING IS FUN

Correct use of prepositions is very important and today let's learn some of them :-
Compare "on time" and "in time" :-
Ex. 1 . The 9.45 train left on time . ( i.e. it left at 9.45 )
( If something happens on time, it happens at the planned time and not late)
2 . I must hurry. I want to reach home in time to see the cricket match on TV .
( i.e. soon enough to see the cricket match)
Compare "at the end" and "in the end" :-
At the end ( of some thing ) = at the time when some thing ends. For example : -
at the end of the match , at the end of the month
Ex . 1. All the players shook hands at the end of the match .
2. At the end of the concert , there was great applause .
In the end = finally :-
Ex . 1. He got more and more angry . In the end he just walked out of the room .
2. I had a lot of problems with my car. In the end I sold it and bought another.
Compare "in" and "at" :-
Ex. 1. There were a lot of people in the shop. It was very crowded.
2. Go along this road, then turn left at the shop . ( giving directions)
Compare at and on:-
