Since vs For

 🆚 *Since* vs *For*

Keduanya dipake buat ngomongin **durasi waktu**, terutama bareng sama **present perfect**. Tapi… cara pakenya beda!

---

📌 *Since* = nunjukin **awal mula** suatu kejadian

*Dipake kalau kamu nyebut TITIK WAKTU tertentu (jam, hari, tahun, dll)*

*Rumus:*

*Subject + have/has + verb 3 + since + waktu tertentu*

📝 Contoh:

👉 *I have lived here since 2010.*

→ Aku udah tinggal di sini sejak 2010

👉 *She has worked here since Monday.*

→ Dia udah kerja di sini sejak hari Senin

---

📌 *For* = nunjukin **lama waktu** atau durasi

*Dipake kalau kamu nyebut JUMLAH WAKTU (berapa lama)*

*Rumus:*

*Subject + have/has + verb 3 + for + durasi waktu*

📝 Contoh:

👉 *They have been married for 10 years.*

→ Mereka udah nikah selama 10 tahun

👉 *We’ve studied English for 2 hours.*

→ Kita udah belajar bahasa Inggris selama 2 jam

---

📌 Bedanya:

* *Since* → sejak kapan

* *For* → selama berapa lama

---

🚫 Contoh salah:

🚫 *I have known her for 2018.* ❌

✅ *I have known her since 2018.* ✅

🚫 *He has lived here since 3 years.* ❌

✅ *He has lived here for 3 years.* ✅
