是 Time 跟 Timing 跟 Times 的差別:
Time: 單純指時間, 前面加 the 表示地區的時間, 如 The time is six thirty PM.
不加 the 表示一個人是否有空檔, 如 "Do you have time now?"
Timing: 指時機, 譬如 The timeing is right for us to expand our business into China. 或 I'd like to ask my boss for a raise but the timing is not right yet because the company just lost a big case.
Times: 指時代, 比如說一個人落伍可以說 He's behind the times. 反之則可說 He's ahead of the times.
時代變遷可說 Times have changed.
