How to use "At once" in context?
When something happens at once it is simultaneous. It is when two or more events happen at the same time. Whenever something happens at once we often say it " Packs a punch ". For example, if someone tells you to go get some ice cream and then their phone rings, you would have to get ice cream and answer the phone at the same time. It would be inconceivable to try to answer the phone after getting ice cream. This is because doing so would require breaking the simultaneous event.
