Diurnal is an adjective that means happening durning the daylight hours.

Our word of the day comes from the Latin word dies (DYE ess) which simply means ‘day.’ Diurnal usually refers to the ‘the daytime’ as opposed to night.

The older I get, the more diurnal my lifestyle becomes. I have most of my fun when the sun is out shining, but the minute night falls, I’m drowsy and ready for bed.
