In A Few Days
Soon, Coming Days
noun
When is the near day? It's in a few days. It's soon, in other words, just not right away. You still need a bit of patience, but don't worry — it'll be here in the coming days.
近日 is used for the near future (unlike 近年, which refers to the recent past). You'll see it in announcements, signs, and news reports for things expected to happen in the coming days.
This is a jukugo word, which usually means on'yomi readings from the kanji. Since 日 has two on'yomi readings, here's a mnemonic to help you remember which one to use:
In a few days, the place where you live will have two kings. Gee, two (きんじつ) of them? Yep, yours is the first country ever to have two kings.
