lendemain

This is the 617th most frequent French word.


lendemain

The day after.


Here, 'lendemain' refers to 'the day after a specific point in time', functioning as a noun to indicate temporal succession.

Nous partirons le lendemain.

We will leave the next day.


In this sentence, 'lendemain' is used with a complement to specify 'the day after' a particular event (his arrival). It's employed as a marker in a temporal expression.

Le lendemain de son arrivée, il a visité la ville.

The day after his arrival, he visited the city.


Here, 'lendemain' again signifies 'the day following a reference day', and serves as a concrete reference to time.

Elle est revenue le lendemain avec des fleurs.

She returned the next day with flowers.
