영어(미국) 관련 질문
I came across the below sentence while studying with Callan Method.
“Do you always answer emails the instant you receive them?”
But I don’t quite understand how this sentence is structured grammatically.
In specific, I can’t understand why it’s possible that the two nouns (emails, the instant) can be in a row.
Could anyone explain how this sentence is constructed?
Yours sincerely.

“the instant” in this particular sentence is the amount of time it takes the person to answer their emails. It basically means: “Do you always answer emails quickly?”
