They’re used in different ways. If you’ve simply forgotten what day of the week or day of the month it is, say 'What day is it today?' If you want to confront your husband, wife or partner over forgetting your anniversary, say 'What day is today? See if you can remember.' –
10. Sept. 2012 · Generally written as two words until 16c., after which it usually was written to-day until early 20c. Similar constructions exist in other Germanic languages (cf. Du. van daag "from-day," Dan., Swed. i dag "in day"). Ger. heute is from O.H.G. hiutu, from P.Gmc. hiu tagu "on (this) day," with first element from PIE pronomial stem ki ...
10. Juni 2015 · One of the answers to this question states that "We shall discuss it in our today's meeting" is grammatically correct. To me, that sentence is clearly wrong. While in today's meeting is fine and in our today meeting is OK ish (though at the very least clumsy), there's something about the possessive there (our today's) that makes it wrong for me.
29. Feb. 2016 · Two other options (in addition to "as from today," "from today," and "effective today") are "beginning today" and "as of today." These may be more U.S.-idiomatic forms than British-idiomatic forms (the two "from" options have a British English sound to me, although "effective today" does not); but all five options are grammatically faultless, I ...
0. Correct: Today is Tuesday. Incorrect: Today was Tuesday. We can use the simple present with 'today'. We cannot use the simple past with 'today'. We can also use the present perfect with 'today'. I have written a letter today. (Today is not finished.) We can use both the present perfect and the simple past with 'this morning'.
4. Juli 2019 · Wisconsin. English - United States. Jul 4, 2019. #3. It’s an odd sentence. I would only use “by today” with a different tense, such as “I should have finished this project by today,” or I” had hoped to finish this project by today.”. To express the idea that I will have it done before today ends, I would say “I’ll finish this ...
31. Okt. 2011 · When today has the meaning of "at the present time" / "in this day and age", either can be used. But when today has the meaning of "this very day" you cannot use nowadays instead. I agree that technical writing (or any writing that is intended to be widely read by non-native speakers) should be in simple English.
19. Apr. 2011 · Neither are clauses, but "today in the afternoon" is grammatical (adverbial phrase of time), while "today afternoon" is not. I would also suggest "this afternoon" as a more succinct and idiomatic alternative to "today in the afternoon".
1. AS OF would mean "at a certain time onward". AS AT would mean "at a precise time of event". AS FROM would mean "at a certain time onward" just like AS OF, but I still don't quite get it. That leads me to go back and use SINCE. Much simpler and people use it in writings and speeches.
12. Dez. 2016 · However (and I cannot back this up with a citation), in general, most English speakers in the US would not use "on" before "today" or "tomorrow." There are also interesting points about the etymology of "today" and "tomorrow" (think of the archaic usage "on the morrow") that are beyond the scope of what you're asking. Share.
