¡Hola! Why do you say… “a principios (de semana)” in Spanish? “at the beginning (of the week)” WHY “A” is translated “At”? I thought “A” is like “to”
Also the same question for “a finales (de semana)” please

Answer

Hola Mihoko, 
"A" in Spanish means "to" but also means "at" for example:
- see you at 10 o'clock
- te veo "a" las 10 
alsoo, it works to refer times in history: a inicios/principios/finales.

Espero esto solucione tu pregunta, si quieres practiar estaré encantado en ayudarte,
un abrazo, Sergio
