When to use Starting from a Point with 从……起

从……起 means “starting from” a point in time and says that something begins then and continues afterwards. Put the time word between 从 and 起, and place the phrase at the start of the sentence or right after the subject: 从明天起，我每天早上跑步。 It means the same as 从……开始 but sounds a little more formal, so notices and rules often use it.

Häufige Stolperfallen

  • Don’t stop after the time word: say 从明天起，我每天跑步 or 从明天开始…, not 从明天，我每天跑步.
  • The second word is 起, not 起来: 从今天起, not 从今天起来.
  • Put 从……起 before the verb, not at the end of the sentence: 我从明天起每天跑步, not 我每天跑步从明天起.
