Run linaweza kuonekana la kawaida kwa mwendo wa kasi, hivyo time runs linaweza kuonekana la mantiki. Lakini kwa maana hii, muda flies, si runs: time flies. Time is running out ni maana nyingine, kwamba muda mchache umebaki. Runs limebadilishwa kuwa flies.
Hali ya kinyume huelezwa kwa drag: muda unasonga polepole ukiwa umechoka au unasubiri sana. The last hour of the flight really dragged. Muda ukipita bila kutambua, flies; ukionekana hauishi, drags.
