What is the difference between about time and high time ?
A:
They have very similar meanings. The main difference is that "high time" is less formal, and it is not really heard as often. I would say that the small difference between them is that "high time" kind of refers to something that has been happening or needed to happen for a while. Example: if you wanted to stay somewhere for 5 minutes, but ended up staying 30 minutes, you could say "it's high time I got out of here." However, you could easily substitute "high" for "about" and it could mean the same thing. The place you will hear "high time" most often is in old western movies.
