Aap kya thoda thoda bol sakte ho de de de de

[JerryCurry3]

I'm a native speaker of English, and I generally use "day before yesterday" instead of "the day before yesterday" in a construction like this. What do other native English speakers do?

[Fay789338]

Am from UK and we'd always say "the day before yesterday"

[Beth205297]

It depends, I think, on the formality of the conversation; dropping the "the" is just relaxed speech, assumed. I might say to a banker I did not know that "I opened my account the day before yesterday", but to my friend who asks when you left a voicemail on their phone, "Day before yesterday. "

dai english sikne kasari ho

[Beth205297]

Does word order matter when the meaning is the same? Is it, therefore, just as correct to say, "The day before yesterday, the cats were sleeping. " as "The cats were sleeping the day before yesterday. "?

[Victoria758614]

It accpeted it when I put the day before yesterday at the beginning of the sentence

[PhilipSaxt]

Would "the cats slept the day before yesterday" be "परसों बिल्लियां सोती थीं"?

[ph.RqsxFI]

the direct translation of "परसों बिल्लियां सोती थीं" would be "the day before yesterday the cats used to sleep." hope this helps!
