Time expressions

The day after tomorrow, last week, next month, every year, soon and later.

Korean has one word each for the day before yesterday, 그저께, and the day after tomorrow, 모레. Weeks and months are counted with 지난, 이번 and 다음, while the years have words of their own: 작년, 올해, 내년. Most time words take 에, 지난주에; 어제, 오늘 and 내일 normally do not.
