Description
This is not an issue or bug, but it might be fun to support the (sadly) no longer used English words "overmorrow" (the day after tomorrow) and "ereyesterday" (the day before yesterday).
Other languages have words for this, e.g. übermorgen and vorgestern in German, so it might be useful (especially if you add multilanguage support in the future?)
They can also be used to mean things like "the day after the day after tomorrow" : overovermorrow and "the day before the day before yesterday" : ereereyesterday.
As I said, more for a bit of fun rather than an issue with this very useful library!
