Hello,

Example, when someone ask you a question, and want a fast answer.

Example: Are you coming tomorrow for dinner? Give me you answer as soon as possible.

When you have a little time to answer. If you write as soon as it's for have a fast answer generaly.

Is it more clear?

Bye

Good morning Suger. The French has given an example, but the phrase can be used in many other ways.

" As soon as "is a request for you to do something as quickly as possible. It can also be used for other situations :-

" As soon as I opened the door, the dog ran out."
" As soon as I saw you, my heart leapt."
" As soon as I saw the letter, I recognised your handwriting."
" As soon as I logged on, my computer froze."

Many, many uses.

Kitos.

Thank you very much for your reply to me quickly.
Yes, now I understand.

Another question??
Are you using more often?? Or rarely??
Is also the same as the meaning of the word (( when))

With thanks and appreciation to you .mr French, and mr.kitos

Good morning Suger.

Often means to do something quite a lot.

Rarely means to not do something often.

"When" is to ask how often someone does something, to which the reply could be, " Quite often" or " Rarely."

So they are quite opposite in meaning.

Kitos.
