by. Okay. Let's take a look at the note. if time speeds by, it passes very quickly.

Yeah. We use it in a very similar way to fly by. Remember we always say time flies

by or we say time flies by when you're having fun. You know, when you enjoy

things, sometimes time seems to just go much quicker. So you can say time speeds

by and this in a very similar sort of a way. Or we have the second meaning here.,

to move passed by someone or something very quickly. So you can literally speed

by someone as well. Okay. Let's look at the first example here. The show was so

enjoyable. I couldn't believe how quickly time sped by. So this is the same way you

might use it with time flies by. But remember, a lot of times when I'm in

class I'm telling students you know, time flies by when you're having fun, the

opposite is usually we say time drags on. You know, when something is boring or

something is unpleasant, it feels like it's lasting forever. So we might say time

drags on, as an opposite but we do say time speeds by or time sped by. Let's

look at number two. As you get older time seems to speed by quicker and quicker.

Yeah so you often hear older people say this. That time just seems to seem so it

feels like it's going faster and faster. And then number three. As he sped by the

speed trap. Yeah you know, police often do this they'll they'll hide behind

something or you know where you can't see them from a distance. And that's

usually referred to as a speed trap. You know, they specifically hide but then

they can read how fast you're going just as you go by quickly. So as he sped

by the speed trap, the policeman clocked him. So probably it's a radar gun and

that's what the radar gun said clocked him at doing 90 miles per hour. So the

radar gun clocked him. So the radar gun came up with that reading. That he was

driving 90 miles per hour as he sped by. So as he

flew by very quickly. Okay, good. I hope you got it. I hope it's clear.

Thank you for your time. Bye-bye,
