Repasamos los días de la semana en español

What does “pasado mañana” mean in Spanish?

Pasado mañana is the Spanish way to say “the day after tomorrow.” It is two everyday words put together: pasado (“past/gone”) plus mañana (“tomorrow”). So if today is Thursday, pasado mañana is Saturday. It is one short phrase that saves you from saying “in two days,” and beginners can use it right away.

In the clip the teacher says: si hoy es jueves, pasado mañana será sábado (“if today is Thursday, the day after tomorrow is Saturday”). The matching phrase for the past is anteayer (“the day before yesterday”). Note that mañana alone can mean both “tomorrow” and “morning,” so context tells you which one.
