**What's the difference between `since` and `from`?** Both indicate the starting point of something like an action, state, or event. | ||
|
||
**While** `since` is typically used with the [[present perfect]] or [[past perfect]] tense, `from` is used in other cases, often paired with `to` or `until/till` to show the duration. | ||
|
||
>[!example] Since | ||
>- I have known John **since I was a child.** | ||
>- He’s been working for us **since he finished school.** | ||
>- I was exhausted; I had been at work **since 6 a.m.** | ||
>[!example] From | ||
>- Masks will be compulsory **from tomorrow.** | ||
>- I’m usually here **from six o’clock.** | ||
>- I work **from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. (or until/till 6 p.m.)** | ||
>- The city reported 400 new COVID-19 cases **from Friday to Sunday. (or until/till Sunday)** | ||
