from...to/through
Hello,
Could you tell me if the sentences below sound fine? Here they are:
- I work from Monday to Saturday (it's obviously fine).
- I work Monday through Saturday/ I work Monday through to Saturday - I prefer the first.
- I work from Monday through to Saturday - sounds odd to me, I don't know why.
What do you think?
