4 de jul. de 2019 · Wisconsin. English - United States. Jul 4, 2019. #3. It’s an odd sentence. I would only use “by today” with a different tense, such as “I should have finished this project by today,” or I” had hoped to finish this project by today.”. To express the idea that I will have it done before today ends, I would say “I’ll finish this ...

1. AS OF would mean "at a certain time onward". AS AT would mean "at a precise time of event". AS FROM would mean "at a certain time onward" just like AS OF, but I still don't quite get it. That leads me to go back and use SINCE. Much simpler and people use it in writings and speeches.
19 de abr. de 2011 · Neither are clauses, but "today in the afternoon" is grammatical (adverbial phrase of time), while "today afternoon" is not. I would also suggest "this afternoon" as a more succinct and idiomatic alternative to "today in the afternoon".
Today means "the current day", so if you're asking what day of the week it is, it can only be in present tense, since it's still that day for the whole 24 hours. In other contexts, it's okay to say, for example, "Today has been a nice day" nearer the end of the day, when the events that made it a nice day are finished (or at least, nearly so).
