Questions about example sentences with, and the definition and usage of "Hours"

A: She says "..before I was even informed." Aha! That makes more sense!
She is scolding the other woman for not informing her about the situation until hours after it happened (when it became too late to help her).

How many hours was it before you informed me? Is the general meaning, but the use of "even" emphasizes that the other woman didn't even inform her, which would have been the least she could have done.

A: They had warning signs at least hours before. At the very minimum, they should have known that the volcano would erupt hours before it happened.

Some people believe they had a day or two.

A: @mihaskh пожалуйста ^_^

I used person (singular) with "their" because I didn't want to specify the gender of the person. It doesn't matter in this context whether it is a male or female, so instead of saying his or her job, I say their.

Generally when you don't want to specify the gender of the person, or it isn't important - saying the plural form is fine.

In spoken language it is
normal to do so but in written language it is often a style choice. So if you choose to say "their" instead of "he/she" - make sure to be consistent 🙂

A: Over and above are kind of the same thing. So "Over 10 hours." And "Above 10 hours." Basically means the same thing.

A: "just" is used a little more in giving time. While "only" implies time is being lost

A: A common phrase in English is “there aren’t enough hours in the day!” Or “there’s not enough hours in the day!”

What you said just now works too “I feel busy and don't have enough time to do my work” or more casually “ I’m so busy, I’m not sure I can finish this all today.”

A: "‎I think that setting aside three 3 hours of time for a final exam is better for all of the students and the instructor. Writing a report could be a good option, but there are multiple strong arguments for implementing a final exam. First and foremost, students who weren't notified of the final exam may not be prepared. Therefore, they will consider this option unfair and will refuse to accept it. On the other hand, the prolonged period of time it takes to write a report may be another critical issue for many students. As you know, almost all of the students here are taking at least 5 classes for this term, and they need to prepare for their other exams, too. Writing a 5-page report will potentially impact their grades in their other classes. Not only is it time-consuming for students to write papers, but it's time-consuming for teachers to grade the papers written by students as well. Reports are bound to be more than 5 pages, so it is not possible to go through every report in order to give students a proper grade before the end of this term. All in all, implementing a final exam is a more practical and timely option for everyone."

A: I work for twelve hours a day.

A: ‎I slept for almost 5 hours after I came back home from school so I feel that I wasted today
