- In the context, it appears that the question/request for counting spring rolls went back to the original requestor (mom)....with the requestor end up doing what she had request. Hence, "we are back where we began". The mom was initially going to count them and instead asked the daughter, then the daughter asked the mom. It's like drawing a circle...started and ended the same place. We often say this expression as "Coming full circle".0 votedJune 4, 20151
- There is a slight difference. For #1 "I finish my work at 2pm", does not really express whether it's in the past, present, or future tense. If you use a specific time like 2pm then it's either past or future tense, or you could say "I plan to finish work at 2pm". Whereas, #2 "I'll finish my work at 2pm." clearly expresses a future tense by using "will".0 votedJune 3, 20150
