Question

Hi please help.

with an early start, they should be here by noon

It means literal (probable) you think, expected likely to happen something in the future?

Answer

Yes, you're right! The sentence "With an early start, they should be here by noon" expresses a likely or expected outcome in the future. It's not a guarantee, but based on the early start, it suggests that it’s probable they’ll arrive by noon. So, it's about something you think will likely happen if the conditions (early start) hold.

Answer

‘With an early start’ in this case is conditional: it means ‘it they leave early’…

Answer

Thanks ma'am and sir?
