AAE Q143: 'at the right place at the right time'

Hi,

Could you tell me which sentence is right?:
"be at the right place at the right time"
or
"be in the right place at the right time"

and how can i answer the sentence "nice to meet you"??

thanks...


Hi,

Both of these sentences are correct. In English you can either be 'in' a place or 'at' a place and often both. The sentence is an expression and personally I don't think it is important which one you use.

The usual response to "nice to meet you" is "nice to meet you too".

On this point, I feel you should be described in greater detail, I think it is that we need!

It seems different countries, different cultures, we really can decide things in the same understanding of the difference!
