Duration: How Long

Express how long an activity lasts and distinguish duration from a specific time point.

25 min
Before you begin
  • Numbers, clock time, time に.
Why this matters

Technical work uses durations constantly: test for two hours, meeting for thirty minutes, study for one hour.

1. Time point and duration are different roles

九時に = at 9 (when). 二時間 = for two hours (how long). Basic durations often omit に.

When vs how long
九時に始めますspecific time + にstarts at 9
二時間働きますdurationwork for two hours
