Swedish has two words for day. "Dag", same as the english "day", and "dygn", meaning "24 hour period". I'm not sure if you can use it in the way the author suggests that no human does, but maybe?
- Too 3y agoBut it’s hardly ever used to represent time offsets in conversational language, especially not backwards in time, only occasionally forwards. It’s mostly to describe intervals. Usually in billing. You pay x/dygn for this, not x/day, even there it’s getting more rare vs x/24h.
- hrnnnnnn 3y agoAh, good to know. I'm still learning the language and haven't gotten much into detail with talking about time.
