Talk:ten to

I posted my last up date to this entry at ten to seven... happy coincidence :)

ten to two
Is this because in some cases, the 'two' can be lifted out? It would seem a shame to not provide translations for 'ten to'. In most cases, it look like it can be done (French is moins dix). Mglovesfun (talk) 12:01, 24 June 2012 (UTC)

Listed as a noun. Um, you're kidding right? , . Also the translations for for ten to two, why? In most if not all cases you can lift out the 'two' bit. In cases where a certain case is needed, use or whatever. Mglovesfun (talk) 09:49, 3 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, it can be use as object of prepositions like at, after, until, before, by, since, toward so it is a nominal. What other PoS would you recommend? Also, consider:
 * "Ten to is when we are leaving." (subject)
 * "The ten-to train left two minutes late." (attributive use of ?)
 * "It was nearing ten to, when we were supposed to board the train." (object of verb)
 * It seems to simply beg a meaningful question to declare them "Phrases" and let the user figure of that they aren't verbals or adjuncts or whatever. DCDuring TALK 02:44, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
