Periods around now – Present Continuous. Describe them as:
Why is “period around now” so long? I’m studying English Grammar in Use, and in the first unit, says:
You can use present continuous with today/this week/this year etc. I’m learning Japanese grammar. Do I work
at a company in Canada?
What does it mean to => say => The company I work in isn’t doing so well in the year? Why?
Do you think it is necessary to take the time to write longer periods? How do you explain this subject that these periods are around now? Why has
our country been doing poorly through the last 10 years?
I saw your essay on my Youtube channel and would like to know if you are a really good writer.
What would be the meaning of time periods around now (to be found in a utmost literal sense)? “Now” is in this hour, this day, this week, this year, this century, this millennium… It
is not idiomatic to use “in” with periods of time.
You can use points of time, to set a limit (“in two years = in some contexts “within the period of two years starting now”).
The year/month can be used with “in” for the month or month. Here are the examples. If you use a day, you use “on” (“on
Wednesday”).
