But I put "was" instead of "is" since today is Friday and Thursday was yesterday. I can ubderstand that, I'll try to explain why I asked, who knws, sometimes a solution arises via a discussion (I am usually an optimist) But the position didn't change? To my self-trained English ears it sounds like it was on pos. 1, but now not anymore, like e.g. it is now on pos. 2 for that specific day? It isn't a position, that can be changed like fluent positions in an ongoing list... How would that be worded, if a (late) change in positioing would have happened, like e.g. with the latest update of a number? ~ as in it looked for a long time the position is #1, but then ... something changed it? scratching the head Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sentence construction "EMH2 is #1 on Thursday" may not be entirely incorrect, but it sounds weird since it's Friday and we're talking about a past event. You can correctly say "Cinderella is #1 on Friday" right now, but tomorrow we'd say "Cinderella was #1 on Friday." This is less about indicating that there may have been a change in position and more that we're talking about a placement in the past, regardless of the current placement. If you're trying to establish some continuity, you could use another verb. For instance, if you want to show the difference between the Wednesday and Thursday position you could say "Marigold rose to #1 on Thursday". If there was some new information which changed the position, you'd still use "was" if you're just talking about the single day: Chappie was #1 on Wednesday. Chappie was #2 on Thursday. You didn't really ask it, but there's also a point about spatial positioning. This is much more muddled, however, as the times you should use "at" or "on" or "in" may not be entirely clear. To me, at least, it sounds more correct to say "EMH2 was at #1 on Thursday" than "EMH2 was on #1 on Thursday". 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
