Re: [請益] "上上週"的說法

※ 引述《jellytina (Tina)》之銘言:
: 想請問,如果在英文中要說"上上週一",
: 應該要怎麼說才正確呢?
: 我自己想到的有:Monday from two weeks ago
: 但是總覺得這樣相當的冗長...
: 如果要說從"上上週一到上週六",我會說:
: Since Monday from two weeks ago to last Sunday
: 總覺得句子很長,請問有什麼比較好的說法嘛?
You can say "the week before last" or "the year before last" (and possibly
likewise with "month", though, for some reason, it doesn't sound quite as
idiomatic to me), but for all three you can simply say "two
weeks/months/years ago" with expresses the idea simply and efficiently in the
fewest words possible.

都忘了有 2 weeks ago 這說法,被中文思考綁架XDDD
