GOOD QUESTION.....actually he will be in a dilemma,even in some cases they may say the thing in reverse ....this may be due to their sight and the habit that they have changed for six months......

If you want to see this phenomenon up close and personal, join the Navy and volunteer for submarine duty or the Air Force and volunteer for missile crew duty. After 6 months under water, or a few days in a silo the only way to tell if it is day or night is by the clock, and even that can fool you as the clocks in those places are usually on GMT. From personal experience, I found that over several days, I would go to sleep when I was tired and wake when I had slept enough. The cycle seemed to be more than 24 hours long, so in a matter of days, I was sleeping during the day and waking up at night. A few days later, I was back to sleeping at night and being awake during the day.

Astronauts have this problem....there bio-system gets thrown off...often staying awake much longer and strange hours.

no ... it is our habit that we sleep at night. if we cant distinguish them, we will sleep only when we feel sleepy. it is possible for us to sleep at day and be awake at day. so, i feel that we cannot say if its day or night unless we are able to see out

No, he can't say. He can't distinguish time difference. Day and night will be same for him.
