Take place / happen
hola , ¿cómo se dice, " It´s going to take place during the night"


Ocurrirá durante la noche
Sucederá durante la noche
Va a pasar durante la noche
Tendrá lugar durante la noche

¿Tengo razón? ¿Hay otras maneras para decirlo?

Ocurrirá durante la noche It will occur during the night
Sucederá durante la noche it will happen during the night
Va a pasar durante la noche it's going to happen during the night.
Tendrá lugar durante la noche

¿Tengo razón? ¿Hay otras maneras para decirlo?
Makes sense?

I don't know how it happened
It all took place so quick = ocurrió todo tan rápido
But all I can do is hand it to you
And your latest trick

¿Qué les parece...

Va a tener lugar por la noche

¿No quiere decir Tendrá lugar durante la noche It will take place during the night?

Para mí, "tendrá lugar en la noche", "tendrá lugar por la noche" y "tendrá lugar durante la noche" son prácticamente lo mismo... la diferencia dependería del contexto, supongo.

In this case yes. For the life of me I cannot think of another example to make it clearer... (I'll be back) (you know who)

Ok. In the following cases they are different.

Tomo mi lugar en esta casa. = I take my place in this home.

Tengo mi lugar es esta casa = I have my place in this home.
