Except if you're talking about Turkish, TDK dictates what words are real, how they're written, what they mean and other grammar and writing rules.

Miscellaneous
I love militant descriptivists
But there is no single word in modern English for "the day after tomorrow" or "the day before yesterday".
In other languages, maybe. But not in English.
Spanish has "antier" for the second one.
Also a fun one "Estrenar", which can mean something like "try for the first time". So you might say "I tried out my bike for the first time the day before yesterday" in English, you could simply say "Estrené mi bicicleta antier" in Spanish
Another good one is differentiating listener inclusive and exclusive "we"s.
Definitely both exist in Japanese and they are used fairly frequently.
一昨日 day before yesterday 昨日 yesterday 今日 today 明日 tomorrow 明後日 day after tomorrow
Because we mainly just call that "Tuesday"
"Overmorrow" is the word for the day after tomorrow, and "ereyesterday" is the word for the day before yesterday, though both are obviously archaic and not really used (you perhaps might see them in fiction or historical work, though).
