The 'Time' Pattern
In this story, we see how to say when something happened. Look at these two ways:
- The Specific Time → at 2:00 PM / at 9:00 PM
- The Day → on Wednesday
Quick Rule:
- Use AT for clock times (At 5:00, At noon).
- Use ON for days (On Monday, On my birthday).
Word Swap: 'Sick' vs 'Dead'
Notice how the story describes the people:
- Sick = Not healthy / in the hospital (Still alive).
- Dead = Not living.
Example: "One person died (became dead) and one person is very sick."
