We usually invite someone to an event, such as a shower. You know, like a wedding shower, a reunion like that a class reunion, family reunion, party. We definitely invite people to parties. All of these are events. You invite somebody to a wedding. That's an event. To a graduation, etc. So usually we invite somebody to an event. Okay. Let's continue here. If we say we are going to invite somebody 'for' something. We want to give them that thing usually. So for example, you could say, we invited somebody for a drink . A drink, like an alcoholic drink. So you're going to give them the drink. You're going to make them a drink. You know, offer them some... I don't know whiskey or wine or beer. You invite them for that. You know , so and if they go. If they come to your house , you don't charge them money or anything. You're inviting them for that. You're going to give them that thing. So you can invite somebody for a drink, for coffee, for a meal, etc. So usually we invite somebody for something like that. Okay. So let's look at the X here. This is where you know, students, especially students of ESL might make a mistake. You know, they might say I was invited for my niece's graduation. No. You should say I was invited to my niece's graduation. So of course with the check, this is correct, with the X, that is wrong. Let's look at the second one. I was invited in that meeting, or I was invited in that conference. Of course, with the X, that's wrong. With the check this is correct. So you should say I was invited to that meeting or I was invited to that conference. All right. Good. And here's just again a couple of examples with "for." After work he invited me for a cup of coffee. Sure or number 2 here. I invited her over for dessert. Or you just say I invited her for dessert too. All right. Good. And anyway, I hope you got it. I hope it's clear. Thank you for your time. Bye-bye.
