On Tomorrow

It’s definitely a southeastern southern black thing. It’s even used by newscasters in SE Georgia. The first time I heard it was in a summer English class at an HBC from a professor with a PHD. I explained to her that if she needed to include the word “on”, the correct use would be “On the Morrow”, not on tomorrow. She told me I was incorrect that she spoke perfect English! I withdrew from the class that same day!
