From One Boundary to Another

Level 2

Read the whole interval in the stated direction.

How It Works

The boundary phrases can be clock times, days or locations. The final verb explains what happens across the span.

Keep any required noun form before its postposition: دروازے سے starts from the door. A place name may remain unchanged.

The construction identifies boundaries; it does not promise that every point in a route was visited or that every moment involved continuous activity. Context gives that detail.

Examples (4)

  1. دکان دس بجے سے چھ بجے تک کھلی ہے۔

    The shop is open from ten to six.

    Both boundaries are clock times.

  2. ہم پیر سے جمعہ تک یہاں ہوں گے۔

    We will be here from Monday to Friday.

    The day names bound the visit.

  3. لاہور سے کراچی تک سفر لمبا ہے۔

    The journey from Lahore to Karachi is long.

    The span is a route between cities.

  4. دروازے سے میز تک آئیے۔

    Come from the door to the table.

    دروازے has its oblique form before سے.
