Sleep late/sleep in?
|
Hi everybody!!
Is the same to say: "On sundays I like sleeping late or sleeping in"?
I mean, getting up later than usual..
Thanks!

yes they are the same. and there is another synonym : oversleep.
"on Sundays, I like to oversleep." " I missed the bus because I overslept."

Oversleep means you slept longer than you wanted too, so you can �t really say �I like to oversleep �.
You could say �It doesn �t matter if I oversleep on Sundays. �
I missed the bus because I overslept is perfectly OK.
Sleeping in is the best choice for what we like to do on Sunday.
I like sleeping late on Sunday is also OK.
Others may differ with their usage. |

I agree with you Apodo.
For me, oversleeping is not a good thing but sleeping in is awesome! |
