Nychthemeron
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Nychthemeron, or Nycthemeron ( from Greek nykt- "night", (h)emera "day" ) is a period of 24 consecutive hours. It is sometimes used, especially in technical literature, to avoid the ambiguity inherent in the term "day."
It is the period of time that a calendar normally labels with a date.
