Feedback/News: Thank you to Enrique (Colombia) for his comment that Craig's Spanish is improving.   Gramática:  For, During and While A question on Facebook from David Blanco Vargas from Sevilla How to use during During is a preposition which is used before a noun (during + noun) to say when something happens. It does not tell us how long it happened. For example: "Nobody spoke during the meeting." "We don't get any snow here in Valencia during the winter." "During my childhood I lived on a farm." How to use while  When is used to talk about two things that are happening at the same time. The length of time is not important. Remember that while is used with a subject and a verb (while + subject + verb). For example: "The phone rang while (or when) I was having a shower." "I met my girlfriend while (or when) we were travelling in South America." "I'll speak to you when (not XwhileX) I finish my work." How to use for  For is a preposition which is used with a period to say how long something goes on: "We've bee
