--description--

Prepositions of time are essential to talk about when something happens.

The preposition in is used for months, years, centuries, and long periods. For example, We will update the software in July, I started learning coding in 2022, I like to work in the morning.

The preposition on is used for days and dates. For example, Our team meets on Mondays, The coding class is on April 10th, I finished the task on the last day.

The preposition at is used to specify exact times of the day. For example, Our meeting is at 9 AM, I begin coding at 10 AM, We have lunch at 12 PM.
