B When…? vs How long…?

When? When did you arrive? — An hour ago. (past simple)
How long? How long have you been here? — For an hour. (present perfect)

💡 ago goes with the past simple and a finished point: She arrived two hours ago. Don’t mix it with the present perfect.

📌
Rememberfor + length of time · since + starting point. Ask When…? with past simple + ago; ask How long…? with the present perfect.
