用法筆記

The adverb form is the most common use of 'tonight'. It typically appears at the end of a sentence, but may also come at the beginning for emphasis (e.g., Tonight, everything changes.)

常見錯誤

❌I will meet you in tonight.
✅I will meet you tonight.
💡'tonight' as an adverb does not need a preposition before it.
❌I will see you this night.
✅I will see you tonight.
💡'tonight' is the standard word for the current evening or night; 'this night' sounds unnatural in most contexts.
