What does "dayturnal" mean?

The time of day when the sky goes from black to blue. More specifically, it is the time when the horizon traverses the disk of the sun, as the earth rotates (turns) on its axis. Dayturn is a more appropriate word for the time, replacing sunrise, as the sun does not move relative to the earth.

Let's go to the beach and see the dayturn!

Dayturnal - what does it mean?

The word people use to mean opposite of nocturnal, or creatures that are active during daylight. The actual word for this is diurnal, but they don't seem to teach this word in school much, so people for some reason invented a new name.

Preppy Chick: I'm so glad people are dayturnal. I don't think I could see at night too well.

Me: The term is diurnal, there's no such thing as "dayturnal".

Preppy Chick: Whatever nerd boy.
