Hi all!
Can someone help me with the below sentence? Why can't I use until to replace before? I thought they meant the same in this sentence... :(
There's still a long way to go before it is fully accepted and understood.
Thanks!
Before and Until

Re: Before and Until
Either is possible here, but 'before' is the more idiomatic choice in this construction.
