A little more than a year into his first term, he looked good for a second.

He is a young Republican just two years into his first term.

He died only six weeks into his second term at the age of 48.

The school year was set up into four terms of twelve weeks each.

It is an idea extremely difficult to get into set terms.

West, a Democrat, took office in 1856 but died a few months into his term.

He died on October 14, 1816, just weeks into his term.

He was well into his current term, had already been nominated for the next one.

He had no opponents and is now into his third term in office.

I'm struggling to understand how this system works, can anyone break it down into even more simple terms for me?
