Are if you're treating them as multiple lengths of time. There's also the perennial question of whether the last day ends on the multiple of 24 hours from the time when the deadline was given, if it means midnight of that day, or closing time of that day, or what And does 7 days mean 7 calendar days, or 7 business days Are there other such words used for certain numbers of consecutive days? So, it would seem that within 30 days, within 30 days or less, and within 30 days or fewer mean exactly the same thing Within 30 days, i.e., within any duration of time less than or equal to 30 days (measured from some starting point).
When writing 1 week 3 days, if week is abbreviated to wk., should days also be abbreviated If so, what should it be abbreviated to? In australian english, in the upcoming days sounds strange In the coming days is acceptable but probably too formal, i agree with @boldben's comment that in the next few days is a better choice What is the meaning of the phrase 'gone are the days' and how is it used [closed] ask question asked 10 years, 11 months ago modified 8 years, 9 months ago
I suspect that the form's author actually meant to say something like at least 30 days before [a certain date]. It will be used in a tabular data program to show information about free work days of employed and each column can't have enought space to include full week day name For common form i mean, what are the abbreviations that is more used in programs. The corpus of contemporary american english does have a few cites for now days, but frankly, just look at the figures yourself Nowadays 3167 now days 7 and here are the figures from the british national corpus Nowadays 1556 now days 0 that's how tiny a minority you're in
For once, the spellchecker is actually right.
