2020年9月10日 · "This coming Friday" is "The Friday which is imminent". That is if today is Wednesday the 9th "This coming Friday" is Friday the 11th. This is to distinguish it from "Next Friday" which is often taken to be the Friday of the next week. "This coming..." can be used with any day of the week and can be used to refer to a day in the next week.

2018年2月28日 · The problem with "tomorrow" is that it requires the reader to know when it is written. The problem with "Thursday" is that the reader then has to figure out which Thursday. The term "this Thursday" is used for a "near" Thursday (such as tomorrow), and "next Thursday" for a "far" Thursday (such as a Thursday six days from now), but just what is ...

Tomorrow, April 7 at 10:00 a.m. EDIT: This question was prompted by someone telling me that it's incorrect to separate date and time with a comma; therefore I'm not asking about "helped my uncle, Jack, off a horse"-type cases in general, but whether there are any other, specifically date-and-time-related, factors at play here, as that person ...

The meaning of "by tomorrow" is in part a function of who will be doing it and partly a reflection of who is the beneficiary. Auto mechanic says "I'll have it done by Friday." If I actually show up to get my car at 7:30 Friday morning, I would not be at all surprised to hear him say "I said 'by Friday,' not 'by first thing Friday.'"

2014年1月29日 · Doing something 'by' tomorrow means that the deadline for completion is tomorrow. This is delivery focused - aiming to complete a task, write a report, deliver a product etc. Doing something 'until' tomorrow means you continue carrying out the activity until tomorrow. This doesn't imply a deliverable or an end product.

2010年12月9日 · However, there are cases where the first sentence really means "the midnight at the start of Friday". Since the common usage conflicts with the technical definition, if you want to be totally clear, use other words or other times. Friday night at midnight. probably will always be interpreted as "Midnight in the night which follows Friday evening".

2015年1月30日 · This clearly has no definitive answer - usage varies between speakers. To me, "next Tuesday" means (strictly) the next instance of a Tuesday, although I just wouldn't use it on Sunday or Monday (preferring the day after tomorrow/tomorrow or an unqualified "Tuesday", which generally refers to the current week, past or present).

2019年8月23日 · Today is Friday. Tomorrow is the weekend. In terms of grammar, how is the definite article justified there? We say: It's noon. It's 12 o'clock. It's August. It's 2019. But we also say: It's the 23 rd of the month. It's the 21 st century. According to Wikipedia: The definite article is used to refer to a particular member of a group or class.

2014年12月8日 · I would interpret it as the time between Friday and Saturday, and I think most people would, but it's still definitely ambiguous. If you're writing or speaking, try to use an alternative instead: 11:59 PM on Friday; The beginning of Saturday; At midnight between Friday and Saturday; If someone else says it, it's not a bad idea to ask for ...

'This Monday' is the very next Monday in the calendar. If it's Sunday, 'this Monday' is tomorrow. 'Next Monday' is the next but one. If it's Sunday, 'next Monday' is a week tomorrow. I too would take 'Monday week' to mean 'a week on Monday'.
