"I drunk a glass of water" doesn't mean that I filled a glass exactly full of water and I drunk all of it leaving no drops on the inside of the glass.

- croisillon 3y agoThat’s my point, “para” is a rare concept
- bmacho 3y agoI see now. So you are claiming that you use the night exclusive version of the word, when you talk about spending a day somewhere. (Bc the night exclusive and night inclusive days certainly exist in most every languages, even in English you can say that you spend the daytime at disneyworld, when the distinction matters.) That sounds rare indeed.
- croisillon 3y agoThat’s where different languages have different concepts which one may or may not find useful from the outside. In other languages it doesn’t really matter whether the person was night inclusive or night exclusive, in Lithuanian you have to pick one word or the other.
