EXPRESSIONS WITH POINT-4: meaning and examples

Good morning again everyone.

Today we finish our series of Daily Vitamins about expressions with the word POINT.

Today's expression is: THE POINT OF NO RETURN

Meaning: the time when you must continue with what you have decided to do because it is not possible to get back to an earlier situation.

Example 1:
This flight has reached its point of no return, so we have to continue to our destination. We have no other choice; we don't have enough fuel to return now.

Example 2:
The entire digital platform project is past the point of no return; we have no choice but to continue with it.

Remember that tomorrow we present the Essential Weekly Vitamin for Spanish-speaking students of English.

Until then, have a great day!
