🗓️ Time & Deadlines
When we talk about when something stops, we use 'by' or 'until'.
-
Until = the action continues up to a point.
- Example: You can vote until June 30. (You can vote today, tomorrow, and the day after).
-
By = the action must happen no later than a specific time.
- Example: Vote by June 25. (Do it now or wait, but don't go past this date).
Quick Look:
Until → Duration (How long?)
By → Deadline (When is the limit?)
