share part of same area or time
to be partly the same in area, time, or topic as something else, so that one part is shared
استعمال کا انداز:
[something] overlaps (with) [something]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes say "overlap each other" (e.g., "Their jobs overlap each other"). In most cases, simply say "their jobs overlap" or "their jobs overlap with each other". Another common error is using "cross" or "mix" instead of "overlap" when talking about shared time or topics.

shared part between two things
the shared part between two or more things in area, time, or topic
استعمال کا انداز:

عام غلطی:
