사용 참고사항
Use 'in' for specific years (in 2024) and 'for' to describe duration (for three years). When using 'next' or 'last', you do not usually use the word 'the' (e.g., 'next year' instead of 'the next year').
자주 하는 실수
Learners often say 'in the last year' when they simply mean 'last year'. Also, be careful to pronounce the 'y' sound at the beginning to avoid saying 'ear'.
