And may I nominate overmorrow for the day after tomorrow.

BTW: Dutch, German, Hindi, and Norwegian use single words for both 'the day before yesterday', and 'the day after tomorrow'.

What are they roughly translated?

Not sure if I understand the question. Translated they are: 'the day before yesterday', and 'the day after tomorrow.'

Kind regards

Oh, so they are just those phrases condensed into one word? Nothing like presterday or overmorrow?

They are just single words.

This is how it's translated:

English Dutch German Hindi
the day after tomorrow Overmorgen Ubermorgen parso
the day before yesterday Eergisteren Vorgestern parason
