What do we call the “rd” in “3ʳᵈ” and the “th” in “9ᵗʰ”? @WS2 In speech, very nearly always In writing, much less so I think what may be going on is that one just assumes that “June 1” is pronounced “June First”, or “4 July” as “the Fourth of July”
Understanding as of, as at, and as from If "as of January 23rd" is adjectival, then not only can it mean That I need all transactions from the beginning of time (so to speak) till January 23rd, and That I need all transactions from January 23rd to now? but if "as of January 23rd" is adverbial, it can also mean "As of January 23rd, your job will include getting me all the transactions "
Meaning of by when used with dates - inclusive or exclusive If, in a contract fr example, the text reads: "X has to finish the work by MM-DD-YYYY", does the "by" include the date or exclude it? In other words, will the work delivered on the specified date
meaning - How should midnight on. . . be interpreted? - English . . . By most definitions, the date changes at midnight That is, at the precise stroke of 12:00:00 That time, along with 12:00:00 noon, are technically neither AM or PM because AM and PM mean "ante-meridiem" and "post-meridiem", and noon and midnight are neither ante- nor post- meridiem
prepositions - Does until [date] mean before that date? - English . . . This is not good English Either it was written by somebody for whom English is not a native language, in which case I wouldn't necessarily conclude anything about his interpretation from the text, or it was written in a hurry by someone who meant to put (you have until 18 August) in parentheses, in which you should deliver it by 23:59 on 18 August
using phrase weekend of - English Language Usage Stack Exchange I would say the weekend of the 22nd or 23rd Also the weekend of the 29th or 30th The week of the 24th has weekend days of the 23rd and 29th, those are the days that are on the ends of the week that contains the date of the 24th
prepositions - Use of on or from with list of dates - English . . . A better pair of examples: "On September 23rd through the 26th, we will be going out to lunch " "From September 23rd through the 26th, we will be on vacation " That said, the implication is by no means definitive; 'from' could just as well be used in the first example and still be correct
which one is correct I will be on leave starting on October 4th till . . . In my opinion "starting on" and "till" don't really go together so I wouldn't use option 1 The phrasing "on leave from X till Y" can be misinterpreted to mean that Y will be your first day back at work, so I wouldn't use option 3 without adding "(inclusive)"
