※ 引述《mingtai1 (snake)》之铭言：
: Hi all, I wanna ask a question about "in"
: When we say "I'll be back in one week"
: That means, within one week or after one week?
: in general, it should be "within"
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Actually not.
It means "after a period of (one week)" in the example you gave.
: but I just found one example with opposite meaning from yahoo dictionary
: http://tw.dictionary.yahoo.com/search?ei=UTF-8&p=in
: (the seventh explanation)
: Does anyone know this?
