Hi Tony,
You have got into the habit of spliting hairs.
Bada Din is not an educated phrase used by the acadamic non Christians it is
a word use in GENERAL it does not PERTAIN specifically to day OR night.
Secondly A or AN I know what to use when.
But this forum is NOT AN ESSAY OR COMPOSITION competition, no prizes or pass
or fails for using A or AN in the wrong places.
I stand corrected coz you got nothing better to do but to pick on peoples
spellings and grammar.
Afra.
