Dutch Grammar Quiz: Time Prepositions (Voorzetsels van tijd)

Key rules for Time Prepositions

om — clock times

Use om when talking about a specific time on the clock. In English this is "at", but in Dutch it is always om.

op — days and dates

Use op for days of the week and specific calendar dates. This matches English "on" but is easy to confuse with in.

in — months, seasons and years

Use in for months, seasons, and years. This is the same as English "in", but watch out: Dutch uses op for days, not in.
