从今天起,我每天复习。

When to use Starting Point with 从...起

Read 从 + time/place + 起 as a sentence tool, not just as vocabulary. First locate the main action or claim, then ask what 从 adds to it.

从明天起我早起。

Starting tomorrow I will get up early.

从现在起不要迟到。

From now on, do not be late.

Common traps

  • Do not translate 从 + time/place + 起 mechanically from English; check the Chinese word order first.
  • Keep 从 close to the part of the sentence it controls.
  • Do not overuse the pattern in every sentence; use it when it adds a clear role.
