-
0:00 - 0:03Welcome back to English In A Minute
from BBC Learning English. -
0:03 - 0:05I'm James and today
we're going to talk about -
0:05 - 0:09the difference between
'in the end' and 'at the end'. -
0:09 - 0:12We're going to go to the beach
at the end of the month. -
0:12 - 0:13In this example,
-
0:13 - 0:16we're talking about
a specific moment in time -
0:16 - 0:19- the final moment
of the month. -
0:19 - 0:22In the end, we decided
not to go to the beach. -
0:22 - 0:24Whereas 'at the end'
is about the final moments, -
0:24 - 0:27'in the end'
is about the time leading -
0:27 - 0:29up to the final
moments. -
0:29 - 0:32Let me explain the example
in more detail. -
0:32 - 0:33Hey there!
Shall we go to the beach? -
0:33 - 0:38Sam: I'm not sure - I might be busy.
Dan: Did you two go to the beach? -
0:38 - 0:41James:
No. In the end, we couldn't go. -
0:41 - 0:43Sam and I considered
going to the beach, -
0:43 - 0:47but eventually,
we decided not to go. -
0:47 - 0:50If at the end of the video
you don't quite understand, -
0:50 - 0:52watch it
again. -
0:52 - 0:55In the end,
you might just find it useful. -
0:55 - 0:56Bye,
everyone!
