FOR For The preposition "for" is used to express the duration of an action, the period of an action or an event.
.example “I’ve lived here for 8 months”. “She was waiting for him for five years”. “We haven’t seen each other for a long time” TIME present: i go on holidays for two weeks every summer past: when i was sixteen, i stayed in london for two months future: While i am in the USA, i will be in new york for two days
