I was reading Julian Simpson’s excellent INFODUMP newsletter this morning, and came across a new-to-me word: overmorrow. Here’s how Julian used it:
And we have to remember that there is an “other side” to this, an overmorrow where we step back out into the world and the shops are open, and the cafes and bars and museums and galleries, and we can see our friends and family and put our lives back together…
According to Dictionary.com, overmorrow is defined as “the day after tomorrow.” The word originated in the 1500s but generally fell out of usage at some point thereafter.
Always a delight to learn a new word.
