How to say 'before previous' in one word?
I'm struggling to say 'before previous' in one word. Like "I visited my parents pre-previous month". Is there a suitable word?
Solution 1:
As in comments, "two months ago" or "the month before last" are common ways to phrase this. As also noted on comments, some folks will drop "the" from "the month before last." That's a pretty informal mode of speech, but bear in mind that there's another "month" implied in the phrase already "the month before last [month]."
Solution 2:
If you really need a single word, just give the name of the month.
Solution 3:
A late answer but you can say "penultimate".
