Talk:someday

some day

How should "some day" be mentioned? synonym? alternative spelling? --Backinstadiums (talk) 11:52, 26 August 2019 (UTC)

Usage note

For the adverbial sense “at some unidentifiable time in the future, esp. the distant future” the one-word someday is standard

you’ll be a star someday
someday you’ll be thankful we did this!

When day retains its noun sense in reference to a discrete 24-hour period, the two-word some day is standard

We’ll pick some day when we’re all in town. JMGN (talk) 10:26, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
