Do you know the difference between the adverb MENTRE and the improper preposition DURANTE?

DURANTE e MENTRE (La differenza)
MENTRE e DURANTE sono due parole con lo stesso significato.
Quindi possiamo usarle in modo indifferente?
La risposta è NO!!
MENTRE (è un avverbio di tempo ed è seguito sempre da un verbo).
DURANTE (è una preposizione impropria ed è seguita sempre da un nome).
Mentre e durante sono due parole che possono essere usate in modo simile ma hanno significati diversi.
Mentre è un avverbio di tempo che indica che due azioni avvengono contemporaneamente ma in modo distinto. Ad esempio: "Stavo leggendo un libro mentre mia sorella guardava la televisione".
Durante è una preposizione che indica che un'azione si svolge in concomitanza con un'altra, ma non necessariamente in modo distinto. Ad esempio: "Ho bevuto un bicchiere d'acqua durante la riunione".
Tuttavia, la parola "durante" può anche essere usata impropriamente come avverbio di tempo, ma questo uso non è corretto dal punto di vista grammaticale. Ad esempio: "Ho bevuto un bicchiere d'acqua mentre la riunione". In questo caso, sarebbe corretto usare la parola "mentre" invece di "durante".
While and during are two words that can be used similarly but have different meanings.
While is an adverb of time indicating that two actions occur simultaneously but distinctly. For example, "I was reading a book while my sister was watching television."
During is a preposition indicating that one action takes place concurrently with another, but not necessarily distinctly. For example, "I drank a glass of water during the meeting."
However, the word "during" can also be misused as an adverb of time, but this usage is grammatically incorrect. For example, "I drank a glass of water during the meeting." In this case, it would be correct to use the word "while" instead of "during."
