We are nearing the start of Summer! It is my favorite season. It might be different and a little strange this year. We still should be careful about our health.
(Did you notice I used near as a verb? "We are nearing Summer.")
1. Near is usually a preposition: The chair is near the table.
However, near is also...
2. an Adverb: She walked near the shore.
3. Adjective: He will get a car in the near future.
4. Sometimes we use the adjective as a comparative
Nearer
I was nearer to the exit than she, so I went out first.
or a superlative (Nearest)
The nearest town is 10 km from here..
Another word (or synonym) for near is close or close to.
For example: She walked close to the shore could be the same as She walked near the shore.
I was closer to the exit, so I went out first.
The closest town is 10km from here...
BUT, we do not say He will get a car in the close future.
AND we DO NOT say near to...
O Close to... is OK
X Near to... is Not OK
5. Nearly is another adverb form of near It means close to.
He was going so fast, he was nearly flying.
Please be quiet, the baby is nearly asleep.
As a verb, when we near something, of course we are getting closer.
As she neared her Grandmother's house, she smelled warm bread.
It is nearly 11:00 p.m. here in Los Angeles
Be well and Take care! - Lisa
Look at you
With your black hair Down
Turn the radio up
So we can feel the sound
You're blood was pumping
As fast as the car we drive
Said lets get out of here
Leave it all behind
Oh it's you and me honey
Yeah it's you and me
Let the years rush by us
Let them greet us with silence
We'll be hopeless and fearless and careless
Like young lovers
We'll get there soon
When all is clear
You took my hand
And said I loved you
And the world appeared
Oh it's you and me honey
Oh it's you and me
Oh it's you and me honey
Let the years rush by us
Let em greet us in silence
We'll be hopeless and fearless and careless
Like…
Oh it's you and me honey
Oh it's you and me child
Oh it's you and honey
Oh it's you and me
Oh it's you me honey
Oh it's me and you child
Oh it's you and me honey
Oh it's you and me child
Oh it's you and me honey
Oh it's you and me
