Dear teachers,


I have two questions to ask:

No. 1
In the sentence “I had a busy day at the office". Can I say “ in the office’? If I can’t could you please tell me what’s the difference between the two?


No.2
The sentence “ He has been ill until recently” means he was ill some time ago but he has recovered. Is that right? And what about the expression “ Not until recently”? I should say “ Not until recently was he ill” which means he began to feel ill a short while ago and he is still ill. Is that right?






Looking forward to hearing from you.



Thank you in advance.
