English Grammar


Do you know when to use 
 'ON time'  and
 'IN time'  ?


On time = at the planned time; neither late nor early:

example: Peter wants the meeting to start exactly on time.


In time = with enough time to spare; before the last moment:

example: He would have died if they hadn’t got him to the hospital in time


Taken from Michael Swan’s 'Practical English Usage'
