#86: The Difference Between Da Un Anno, Per Un Anno, Tra Un Anno, Un Anno Fa
In this intermediate-level lesson, we cover how to use three prepositions and one adverb referring to time. These words can be easily confused, and they have different meanings and specific uses.
The Italian words “da un anno” are used to refer to something that started in the past and it’s still ongoing in the present. “Per un anno”, instead, is used for something that started and ended in the past.
The Italian words “tra un anno” are used for something that will happen in the future. “Un anno fa” is used with the meaning of “ago”.
