<!-- (audio) Anna: You have a one-hour lunch break around noon every day. -->

--description--

Before is used to talk about a time earlier than another event or time. It indicates that something happens first. For example, I eat breakfast before I go to work means that eating breakfast happens earlier in time than going to work.

After is used to describe something that happens later than another event or time. It indicates the sequence of events where something happens following something else. For example, I go home after work means that going home happens later in time than finishing work.

Around is used with time expressions to indicate a time close to but not exactly at that point. It suggests flexibility within a short time frame. For example, We'll meet around noon can mean any time close to 12:00 PM, like 11:45 AM or 12:15 PM. It's commonly used to give a general idea of timing without being too specific.
