Taking place at this time.The meeting is now in progress so we cannot enter the room.
Privately.The meeting was held in private in the office of the school principal.
In simple and clear language.My bank explained to me in plain English what the terms of the loan were.
Instead of someone or something.I was able to play in the soccer tournament in place of an injured player.
In the proper place or location.Everything in the room was in place when we arrived for the meeting.
Actually present at a place or event.I had to go to the bank and sign the papers in person.
Eternally, forever.The high school was given the right to use the city park in perpetuity.
Written or signed with a pencil.I wrote the exam in pencil so that I could change some of the answers easily.
Casually, as an aside.I mentioned to my friend in passing that I want to change jobs.
