Stop Saying "I Slept by 9pm" Here is the Correct Thing to Say

English might be our official language but it is not our native or indigenous language, this is why making mistakes is compulsory. But it is always good that when we notice some of our mistakes we tend to correct it so that it doesn't take place in the future.

This is because when those people that originally own this language hear you say some of these things, they might think you are an uneducated person while you are. So to avoid this, it is best that you know the correct way some simple English words and phrases are used.

So in today's lecture, my main focus is on one phrase which is commonly used in almost every part of the country and that is "I slept by 9pm". Most people think that this phrase is right but it is completely wrong.

The correct thing to say is "I went to bed by 9pm" the reason why you should put it in this manner is because you only know when you go to bed to take your sleep, but you don't know that exact time you doze off.

So it is best you put it in this manner to avoid confusion.
