Hello all,
When I read the definition for "from" one thing which I read was "from" is used when "indicating the point in time at which a particular process, event, or activity starts".
So I was thinking why this below sentence is considered incorrect.
"I have had this issue "from" a long time.
Instead we say "I have had this issue for a long time".
Does this mean when we use "from" we have to give a time in past?
Many thanks
