AussieInBgJanuary 2023 ”about it” - ”it” tends to refer to something which is closer physically, emotionally and so on. ”about that” - ”that” is relatively more distant emotionally, physically and so forth. So, for things that are more important and closer, we use ”it”, for things less so, then ”that”. |
