🔋 The 'Lasts' Rule

In the text, we see: *"The battery lasts 57 hours." *"The battery lasts 30 hours."

What is happening? We use lasts to talk about time. It tells us how long a battery or a phone works before it dies.

Easy Pattern: [Thing] + lasts + [Time]

Examples for you:

  • My phone battery → lasts 12 hours.
  • The movie → lasts 2 hours.
  • The train trip → lasts 30 minutes.
