Hello, regarding your question: What time do you usually listen to the podcast?, well that’s the third thing I do in the morning, after going to the toillet and making a delicious coffee. While I’m enjoying my first cup of coffee, I’m listening to your wise teachings, thank you so much for that.
I’m pleased that we keep you company while you’re drinking your morning coffee, Jose. Thanks for listening!
Hi guys, I hope you are doing well. I was wondering if there is a difference between saying have you ever been IN London or have you ever been TO London? These are just examples. But, the question is, is there a difference between using IN or TO when I want to talk about whether I’ve been somewhere?
Thanks guys.
Yes, there is a difference, Juanse. Now, I’m IN Valencia. I’m IN Spain. But we go TO a place. For example, I’m going TO Madrid next week.
We spoke about prepositions of time recently. I’ll make a note to speak about prepositions of place (lugar) and we’ll go into more detail on the podcast soon.
