Hi,

Please have a look at the follwing sentences.

A request must contain the following information.
1 Reasons of the request
2 Time/date the request should come into effect.

I am confused here. Should I use date or time ? what is the difference between these two words ?
According to a dictionary, the word "date" can mean a particular time in the past or in the future .

Thanks for your help !

The date usually refers to a calendar day. e.g. June, 5th, September 11, 2001, etc. The time is the hour and minutes. I think in this case, they are asking for the time AND date the request should become effective.. 12 noon, February 1, 2007, 12:01 AM, March 2, etc.

the adaptation between an English word and an English sentence is that a word us oftentimes in incomplete sentence including "you're cool" while an English sentence could be some thing like "you have a great humorousness."

Date refers to the day of the year (the date of today is January 14, 2007) and the time refers to the time of the day (the time of the day now is 8:23PM)!@~

Here's an example, Hello, Boss! I would like to take a day off from work next week, ok? So, he fills out the form like this:
Reason: It's my birthday, I'm gonna tie one on.
Date: Tuesday Jan. 18, 2007

Hello Boss: I'm gonna be late next Monday, ok?

Reason: The babysitter can't come until 10 am,
Time: Monday morn. 1/15/07. 11am instead of 8am.

Time--time of the day. As in 5:30 or 2:25.

Date--month/day/year. For example, 1/18/06

Use both so the time of day and the month, day, & year is known.

Maybe it just means the date if u do not know the exact time? Or maybe means both date & an approx time?
Other than that, Im not sure I understand either.
Good Luck though!

You need to use both time as on the clock and date as on the calender. The time in history is different as it refers to the period in history not the precise time on the clock.

They are probably asking for both the time AND the date, though I always believed the "/" to denote either or.

Date is day, month year...eg today is 14/1/07
Time is the time of day eg the time is 14.12 (or 2.12pm)
