When we look back at the past, certain events feel strangely familiar. Pandemics that spread across the world. Wars that change everything. Economic crashes that seem to happen just when people feel most confident about the future. Even though the details are different, the patterns can feel… repeated. Also, when we talk about history, time matters. Not just what happened, but when it happened. How specific we are, and how we describe time in English. We talk about events in certain centuries, on particular days, and at exact moments that changed the world. So in today’s episode, we’ll do two things. First, I’ll give you a short and clear grammar lesson on prepositions of time: in, on, andat. Then, we’ll explore some big moments from history and ask whether history really does repeat itself. As you listen, pay attention to how I use in, on, and at!
