for, during, and while?
If so, I have prepared something that will help you when writing or speaking in English.
For – We use for + a period of time so we could say HOW LONG something goes on.
For two hours, for three days, for a week, etc…
During – We use during + a noun to say WHEN something happens.
During the holidays, during vacation, etc…
I fell asleep during class.
I was asleep for an hour.
as for during and while:
During + Noun (I fell asleep during class)
While + Subject + Verb (I fell asleep while I was in class)
