am hellichten Tag

== German == === Adverb === am hellichten Tag Formerly standard spelling of am helllichten Tag which was deprecated in the spelling reform (Rechtschreibreform) of 1996. ==== Usage notes ==== This spelling remains more common than other superseded spellings, since many speakers fail to analyse hell(l)icht as a compound hell + licht, but rather interpret it as hell + the ending -icht (as in Dickicht, etc.).
