Why do you say “so do I”? And that is why it is not related to the issue of "fronted adverbials." |

British English - “In two hours time” In the Corpus of current American English, the frame [in x minute (') time] has a frequency of about 0.08 per million words in the Fiction subcorpus, where it is most common. In the British National Corpus, it's about 0.50 per million words in the spoken subcorpus. This suggests that it's rare in both dialects, but less common in American English. |
