Asked on January 11, 2022 in Grammar.
I would advise against your final passage in formal writing, as none of the sentences after 1 are complete, but it could work in a narrative.
I know you can use a quartercolon passage to distinguish between your outer and inner lists (see the third bullet here ), but since you only have one inner list and it comes last, I’d suggest going with the first passage instead of
the second passage.

Asked on February 27, 2021 in Word choice.
What should I do in a situation where I won’t be home for 2 hours after work or for family meetings? Is the clause a little of a a coincidence?
When you use a number then you couldn’t possibly be talking about multiple future scenarios since you’re referencing a very specific time in the future. If you drop the “” off, however, things make more sense.
I will not be home until two hours from now.
What are some good English accents to help me with my pronunciation in English? I
only shall be home for two hours until 2am tonight, so it doesn’t sound like a crime to do.
Does not sound natural. I’ve always thought this to be the case!
If
you’re talking about a specific instance, drop the “from now on” and just use “from now” with until. While if you meant to talk about many future situations, use “from now on”. “How,
why, when, and how do I find people that have this kind of “value”, etc.?
