Claire: Ken, when did you say this report is due? Ken: Come on, Claire…you can do it. I always worry about the day after tomorrow! Wednesday would be the day after tomorrow. Claire: Does that mean I only have two days to finish this? For example, the 25th or this Thursday. All good things must come to an end. Claire: You mean this coming Friday? Replace one worry with another. You have have specified the actual day and told the person that it will be 'this' week the current week you are in. When we are talking about more than two days away it is best to give the actual day. For example; Today is Monday, and I am talking about Wednesday. When describing the times that have not yet come the day following today is called tomorrow. Tomorrow will soon be today, and before you know it, today will be yesterday! For example It is Monday today and you are talking about an event that is going to occur on Thursday you would say. When organising an event or a meeting it is sometimes better to be really specific to avoid any confusion. Using this common expression the listener will automatically count two days from whatever today is. So we say within three days time or in three days or three days from now.。 。 。 。 。 。 。
