Cách sử dụng
The expression "tick past" means when the clock's second hand moves to the next minute. It is often used to describe the passage of time, where we notice that time is moving forward little by little. For example, if it's 9:29 and you're waiting for a meeting at 9:30, you might say "it's just about to tick past 9:29", meaning that it's almost time for the meeting to start. So, "tick past" is a way to describe when the clock moves forward to the next minute.
