Actually, sentences that begin with 'could', 'should', or 'would' are questions and should have a trailing question mark. Your original quote, Could you please pass me the pepper shaker? , could be answered with a yes or no. Although we usually use this syntax as a command it is not the same as the command Pass me the pepper shaker, or Please pass me the pepper shaker. Etiquette tells. I will be free for the rest of today Implies you are free right now and for the rest of the day, but not tomorrow. After that, I was free the rest of yesterday. No. You could say: After that, I was free the rest of the day. Assuming it has already been established the activity was yesterday. This reminds me of, for example, would you be fine by tomorrow morning? meaning, will your condition still be fine when tomorrow morning arrives? But I have no idea what could by that express, I'm pretty sure it works only with by then. Therefore, the original question is probably ungrammatical. Would you be fine to that? In the context of someone working for an employer but one day doing their office work at home, rather than at the office, which one is the correct usage — work from home or work at home ? For example: Person 1: Are you working from office tomorrow? Person 2: Work [at/from] home. Tomorrow comes from the Middle English, from the preposition to + morrow. Morrow, which is an archaic or literary word meaning the following day, comes from Middle English morwe, from Old English morgen. I will be coming from tomorrow onwards. Is this an accurate way or a phrase to tell someone about the planning and as a promise that from tomorrow onwards, I'll be there? A close call. In my opinion, 'at' is used when one is correcting an implied absence I shall be at the office tomorrow implies the existence of doubt that I would have been there. Either I had previously said I would be away, or something led you to believe so and I am contradicting that belief. I shall be in the office tomorrow confirms my presence, as was anticipated (probably by both of us). The words today, tomorrow and yesterday are not capitalized. However, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday are capitalized. Which is correct? I will transfer the amount on tomorrow. I will transfer the amount by tomorrow. Are words like yesterday and tomorrow considered nouns, adjectives, or even adverbs? I'm getting mixed signals from several references. In a case like I have an important meeting tomorrow, it.
