Examples of tomorrow

tomorrow What matters from this perspective is not the children of today, but the adults of tomorrow. From the Cambridge English Corpus Markers are particles such as ' therefore ' or ' so ', or indexicals such as ' today ' or ' tomorrow ', that modify the proposition. From the Cambridge English Corpus And if your action tomorrow is necessary it is not free. From the Cambridge English Corpus If the horizon is extended, changes in tomorrow's parameter estimates will matter for more future periods. From the Cambridge English Corpus But the margins, as the conference amply demonstrated, offer opportunities enough - and today's margins have a habit of becoming tomorrow's mainstream.

From the Cambridge English Corpus Of course this is not needed for today's performance but may be vital for tomorrow's revival. From the Cambridge English Corpus Yesterday's enemy is today's friend and good neighbour and tomorrow's partner in cooperation, and vice versa.
