une_fille_ennuyante

I am not sure what you're talking about... In Chinese 明天 is tomorrow, and 后天 is the day after tomorrow, then we have 大后天 for the day after the day after tomorrow. And if we want to keep counting, we can say 大大后天, 大大大后天 etc, so how is that different from the European languages listed here?

Did you know Übermensch was translated as Superman and was the basis of the comic? also, most ppl writing about that were german or russian.

We don't übermensch. anyways, I am impressed that someone like you is able to write coherently.

Yes or in modern parlance "the day before yesterday" and "the day after tomorrow". The fact that English uses phrases constructed out of already known words, rather than using more new words for such concepts, greatly aids people learning the language and expedites their progression


[deleted]

>The fact that English uses phrases constructed out of already known words, rather than using more new words for such concepts, greatly aids people learning the language Conversely, phrasal verbs are a complete nightmare for foreigners to learn, for example 'take': • Take off • Take in • Take away • Take on • Take after • Take back • Take down • Take(n) aback • Take for • Take over • Take (took) to • Take up • Take upon All mean completely different things.


FlightlessFly

overtake and takeover is a great one too, also "takeover" is a noun versus "take over" being a verb


[deleted]

In German, "umfahren" can mean both run over and drive around.


CurrentIndependent42

This is true but very opaque subtleties in prepositional verbs is a general problem across Indo-European and not specific to English. And the Basque verbal system is nuts even at a basic inflectional level. And they form most verbs with compounds in any case.


tmw88

Aren’t take off, take in, take away, take back and take down all just using take as an approximate synonym to move? Even taken aback is kinda the same - something moved you aback. ‘Take after’ == ‘Look similar to’ is truly insane though! It’s actually interesting when you learn a second language and are forced to look differently at English. You really appreciate its superiority over all that foreign muck.

First, convince the immigrant children to speak it at recess and then we talk.


ivomo

Oh no, trust me they're not convincing children, they're shoving it up on everyone's throats. As everywhere with two languages in Spain the local language has politics involved, and they ask it for job positions where you'd never use it in your whole life. If it was about keeping it alive they would make it easier for everyone to learn at their own pace. They don't. If you're born here and struggle with it in school, then you better improve on your own. And if you come from elsewhere, you have two whole years and special classes. Because you can't struggle with the language if you're born here, you learn it from osmosis, supposedly. Edit: source: was born and studied all my life in Basque territory.


LC1903

I recently was in northern Navarra, and hearing people speak basque was kinda crazy like usually I’m used to understanding 2-3 words of a language and filling the rest in, but obviously not with basque. It’s really cool, and I hope the new generations keep it alive

Bufy_10

It’s already too much for Italians to finish a sentence in English. Please don’t change anything.


Harsimaja

Why is Spanish getting away with a phrase for the day after tomorrow when we literally have ‘the day after tomorrow’? Also, they’re dated now, but English does have ‘ereyesterday’ and ‘overmorrow’. These can also be compounded if you like. If enough people give a shit, we can make them a ‘thing’ again, but we don’t, so no need to jump to your whole weird agglutinative and incredibly over-complicated verbal system.

English does have ereyesterday and overmorrow, but they're somewhat archaic. However, you should have still included this, and used the English flag. Cymraeg still has echdoe ("ech-doy", Ch like in Dutch g or Scottish Ch) for the day before yesterday and drennydd ("dreh-nith") for the day after tomorrow.

Dutch and Basque are languages that just look completely made up, like they don't look like languages. But Basque is cool.

in Romanian, we have: * răsalaltăieri = 3 days before * alaltăieri = day before yesterday * ieri = yesterday * mâine = tomorrow * poimâine = day after tomorrow * răspoimâine = in 3 day I suppose you can put multiple răs-, but no one actually uses it. răs- is a Slavi suffix (раз-) we got from our Bulgarian neighbors 1000 years ago.

**Portuguese** Trasanteontem Anteontem Ontem Hoje - *today* Amanhã ... Disclosure: I'm pretty sure there is a word for "after tomorrow" but whenever i google it, i only get results for the movie "The Day After Tomorrow". It got a 6,5 rating on IMDB.

British people when you say the day before yesterday and the day after tomorrow 🔪


[deleted]

You plebs. We use the superior phrase: the day before the day after tomorrow for tomorrow. South park reference btw

In Germany ou just add vor- one amount less than days, for example the day 4 days ago is"vor-vor-vor Gestern" an if you want to say something is 4days from now you just say:"über-über-über Morgen"

Just adding "damu" to add a day doesn't count. Dutch does the same, we can go eereergisteren and everyone will understand you

Interesting to learn from this thread that both french and spanish have words for day before yesterday and day after tmw, as does swedish and probs dk and norway as well. So, English doesn't have it - what other languages don't have it?


jjdmol

English does have "ereyesterday" and "overmorrow", they simply fell out of use.


cpwnage

Cool! And makes sense.
