This podcast episode focuses on the correct usage of the English prepositions "for," "since," and "during," particularly in relation to time. The hosts, Aubrey and Lindsay, begin by discussing common errors they've observed, emphasizing the importance of avoiding direct translation from other languages. They then explain each preposition's function with examples, noting that "for" indicates duration, "since" marks a starting point continuing to the present, and "during" specifies an event's timeframe. A role-play demonstrates practical application, highlighting the need for appropriate verb tenses (present perfect, past perfect) depending on the preposition used. The episode concludes by announcing a part two to further address verb tense complexities.
