I have checked it and still maintain my opinion. Don't agree with your explanation at all. the tomorrow in that question is not a day as u posited. That is d fundamental mistake u r making which will make ur answer inevitably wrong. until u understand dat d tomorrow used in d sentence is used in its ordinary English meaning u won't get it.

I don't think that thought process is correct. Whatever day you choose will always give our 'tomorrow' a specific day of the week.

As long as a day is selected for the day the statement was made, the 'yesterday' and 'tomorrow' take on specific days.

If we go by your Tuesday (which may be correct) then your 'yesterday' automatically assumes the place of Monday and your :tomorrow' would have been a Wednesday.

The impossibility you talked about doesn't come to play here cause the statement is conditional. Conditional statements need not relate with what is practical.

Is the emphasis on tomorrow or yesterday?

And beside, you have falling into the shifting condition effect I predicted.

You said: If only Yesterday (Monday) was tomorrow (Wednesday), today would have been Sunday Thursday.

Did you even realize that your yesterday has picked up a new identity? From monday, it has become wednesday.

See now that your conditions aren't getting satisfied. Or perhaps you need to tell us to only regard tomorrow not yesterday.

Once again, if the statement has no other condition attached, which you aren't telling us, then you are wrong.

You are right in a sense!

Yes I have and its not Tuesday.

Yes it is!

Now if you insist on Tuesday, the statement would read:

If only Yesterday (Monday) was tomorrow (Wednesday), today would have been Sunday Thursday.

In order words, if Wednesday takes the place of Monday I.e yesterday is Wednesday, it only follows that today can only be Thursday.

That's why the answer is not Tuesday.

I have said too much already.



If only yesterday (Saturday) was tomorrow (Monday) today would been a Sunday

Monday... The answer is monday

“If only yesterday was tomorrow” reads a different meaning from “If only tomorrow was yesterday” ✌

FRIDAY is the day; to the question asked.
i.e “If only yesterday was tomorrow”

TUESDAY is the day for “If only tomorrow was yesterday”

CLEARED!

"A teacher walks into d Classroom and says; If only Yesterday was Tomorrow, Today would have been a Sunday."

Now on which Day did the Teacher make that Statement?
The Teacher made the statement today.
