Alright, so the phrase "extend to" basically means to reach or stretch to a certain point. If we think about it in everyday terms, it's like when you're trying to grab something that's really far away from you and you have to extend your arm as far as you can to reach it. So, in a more general sense, "extend to" can refer to reaching out to a specific place or point, or it can also mean to continue for a certain length or duration.

For example, if we say that someone's influence extends to a certain group of people, it means that their influence reaches and affects that group. Or if we say that a road extends to a certain town, it means that the road goes all the way to that town.

So, to sum it up, "extend to" is all about reaching or stretching to a certain point or continuing for a specific length or duration. It's kind of like reaching out, stretching out, or continuing on to a particular place or time.

I hope that helps you understand what "extend to" means!
