Telling 7:45 in English

It's like you are practicing your English. Now your opponent asked you "What time is it right now in your country?" What would you say?

Would you say "It's 7:45"? Never say this. this doesn't sound good.

7:45 in English


You should say "It's quarter to 8". Believe me, this thing is so hard to understand. Maybe there is a question exploring in your mind. 

"It's quarter to 8"


The question is we're talking about 7 o'clock. Why 8 is here?

Why 8 is here before knowing that. At very first you have to know Quarter means 15. It means there are 15 minutes left to be 8.

Practice:

(1:45) It's quarter to 2.
(2:45) It's quarter to 3.
(3:45)  It's quarter to 4.
(4:45)  It's quarter to 5.

"I have a birthday tomorrow Or My birthday is tomorrow" In English both are right. They are enough to just express your thoughts. But there has a problem if you use these two sentences while you are talking, they are not gonna sound so smart. For Example, You have a client on Fiverr. He is from the USA.

Yes, you are correct that "I come from" is used in the present tense and "I came from" is used in the past tense. "I come from" is used to indicate one's place of origin or where they currently reside, while "I came from" is used to indicate where one was before a specific point in time. In the examples you provided, "I come from Bangladesh" is the correct way to respond to the question "Where are you from?" because it indicates where you currently reside.
