How would you explain ‘for the day’ in the context? Mother needed to go to La Flor to have a look-see at how they dress here, so she won’t be a low-lid dumbdora like people on that island. On the streets you can see which men are farmers who’ve come to the city for the day: white trousers, rolled to the knees. The men taking coffee at La Flor were all black-trouser men. The ladies wore cloche hats and smart, short dresses like Mother’s, but with black stockings for modesty. How would you explain ‘for the day’ in ‘On the streets you can see which men are farmers who’ve come to the city for the day’? Does it mean the farmers came to the city during the daytime and went back home at night? Thanks!
