I don’t know of any specific typological investigations of this, but they occur in other branches of TB, so perhaps a perusal of additional TB grammars will reveal many more examples.

<p class="MsoNormal">A student of mine is collecting data on lexemes denoting consecutive days after tomorrow in East Caucasian (and neighboring) languages, and we were wondering if anyone here knows of any typological research that discusses the encoding of
this concept (or perhaps more broadly systems of naming days and their diachronic development), or any language-specific work that explores such terms in some detail.<o:p></o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">In some East Caucasian languages, there are unique, non-compositional terms for the day after tomorrow, the day after the day after tomorrow, for up to 6 days after tomorrow. We have been able to find some languages that also have a non-compositional
term for the day after the day after tomorrow, for example, but we can't seem to find anything more elaborate than examples on internet fora or short sentences in reference grammars.<o:p></o:p></p>
