8. Telling what time something will happen

9. When we talk about an event, and want to say what time it will occur we use ‘a’. The ‘a’ will replace ‘son las’ or ‘es la’ because you will be using another verb instead. The following are examples:  Example: It’s 6:16. Son las seis y dieciséis. She eats at 6:16. Ella come a las seis y dieciséis.  Example: Class starts at 11:50. La clase empieza a las once y cincuenta.

10. When we ask what time an event take place, we say, “¿A qué hora…?” As you can see, the ‘a’ is pulled into the question, and is used in the response. The following are examples.  Example: At what time does the Spanish class start? ¿ A qué hora empieza la clase de español? The Spanish class starts at 8:00am. La clase de español empieza a las ocho de la mañana.  Example: The movie is at 5:00. La película es a las cinco.
