How can I say this idea in English?

Question

People say this is incorrect: Today last year I travelled to London.
I want to specify the same day last year. How can I say this idea in English?

And why is that wrong?

Answer 1

I would say "On this day last year, I traveled to London," or, "A year ago today, I traveled to London."

The reason is that "today" refers specifically to today--the day that it currently is right now. You've got the sentence right, but the word "today" just doesn't work if you're talking about something that happened in the past.

Hope that helped.

Answer 2

Today last year i travelled to London is wrong because you are telling both the things at a same time''today and last year''.It would be in this way.On this day i travelled to London last year or Last year on this day i travelled to London.

Answer 3

On this date last year, I travelled to London.
A year ago today, I travelled to London.

Answer 4

Exactly one year ago today I traveled to London.
Or you could say " On July 28 2005 I traveled to London.

Answer 5

Last year, on this day, I travelled to London.

Answer 6

Last year at this time I was in London.

Or last year on this day I went to London.

Answer 7

A year ago, I traveled to London.

Answer 8

This day last year i was in London

Answer 9

On this exact day i travelled to London one year ago.

Answer 10

Why not do it about something that you love doing. A hobby or whatever. Or, you could do something that you feel strongly about. Don't fret over it, keep your calm and try not to think about it. Keep a little notebook with you wherever you go, because ideas will pop out at you in the most unlikely of places!
