Usage and example sentences of the time preposition in on at

Actually, it's very simple to understand, it's a difference in scope.

The range of in is the largest, and you can use it on a timeframe of more than one day.

Example sentence, i was not doing good in last few daysI didn't have a very good time the other day, and here I mean a few days, of course, a few years, the last century, it's okay.

On means that one day, I was not doing well on yesterday

At is the most accurate, I have to eat at ten o'clock, i am eatting at 10 oclock

I hope you're happy with me. Let's ask again if you have any questions.

Upstairs is very general... That's a good notation.

In my experience ha.

The first is the literal meaning.

in ......Inside.

on ......Topmost.

at ......

The most common problem should be the difference between the time and the time of expression, and think of the literal meaning in terms of a range concept.

So as I understand it.

For example, one morning, afternoon, and Chinese evening are all ...... in the morningand so on (note that noon and night are not used in).

But it's not a specific time, because it's all at a certain time of day, so it's in the morning, afternoon, evening....

If we're going to use months, quarters, and years, we're usually going to say what we're going to do in a few months, what we're going to do in the summer, what we're going to do in a few years. It belongs to the month, the season, and the year. So all use in

For example...in 3 months.

Then we say that we are going to use ON on a certain day of the month

on monday...on december 1st

There are also some festivals or something, which actually mean a certain day, so you have to use on

on spring festival

And finally, AT....At is generally specific to the moment, that is, to be specific to the time.

At that is: i got up at 10:00 in the morning on Monday

The fixed usage outside the column is 1 at noon/at night

2.When morning, afternoon, or evening have a preposition or postposition predicate, in should be changed to on

on a hot summer afternoon

on an afternoon of may.

Referring to other people's ideas, plus your own, and only thinking about these may be omissions.

in+time period, at+specific time, on+specified date.

1. in+ time period (a period of time) such as morning, noon, season, month, etc.

Example sentence: i woke up three times in the night(Night, I woke up three times) in which in is added after night to indicate a period of time.

the accident happened in the morning.(The accident happened in the morning) should be noted that in the morning, the evening phrase is formed in the following way: in the+night morning

However, for the month, it is directly in+ month. For example: i was born in August

I was born in August) In addition, have you noticed that the tenses of these three example sentences are in the simple past tense! Because things happened in the past.

2. AT+ specific time point (what time, time).

For example: I usually get up at six o'clock.(I wake up at 6 o'clock every day) 6 o'clock here is a specific time point.

3. on+specific date (day of the month, day of the week, holiday).

i go to school on september 1st.(I went to school on the 1st of September) on+ specific date.

The usage of the time prepositions at, on, in is:

1. AT is used at a specific time and before noon.

For example: at 6:00, at seven thirty, at noon.

2. on is used before a specific day and date.

Such as: on Monday, on September 1st.

3. In is used in the year, month, season or in front of morning, afternoon, and evening.

at, in about the usage of place

When used in a locality, at refers to a smaller place, such as when it refers to a town, in refers to a larger place, and is used in front of a province, a country, or a continent. It is used in both at and in front of the cosmopolitan city, but in front of London it is usually used in the front.

In the context of the speaker's residence, in general, in indicates a real existence, but in is not. When it comes to a large building in a large city, it is often used in front of the name of the large city, such as The Pantheon at Rome.

When it comes to shops, institutions, schools, etc., if you think of it as a point, you can use AT. If you look at a place (place) with in, the barber's (barbershop), green'S (the store opened by green) and so on only use AT, not IN. When it comes to using AT, such as Live at 1184 Zhongshan Road, the road name should be preceded by in, and "in......intersections" with AT;

in + for a period of time, e.g. in the morning, in 1990....AT+ hour (hour), e.g
