At some unknown future time
At a time in the future that we do not know or do not say.
Vzorec užití:
[someone] will [do something] someday
Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes confuse "someday" with "some day". "Someday" (one word) is almost always about an unspecified time in the future. "Some day" (two words) usually means "a particular day" and can be past or future, often with a number or description (e.g., "some day last year"). Learners also sometimes use "someday" for past events, which is incorrect; it is used only for the future.
Synonyma
one day (Very close in meaning; often a little more casual and common in conversation.)
|
eventually (Focuses more on the outcome being certain, while "someday" can sound more hopeful or uncertain.)
Antonyma
never (Shows that something will not happen at any time, which is the opposite of happening at some future time.)
|
already (Means the action happened before now, contrasting with an unknown future time.)
