Hi,

Are the principles/rules you stated apply to the case involving dates, e.g. Sunday and on Sunday. Your reply will be appreciated.

Ex.

1) I played football on Sunday.

2) I played football Snday.

Are those two sentences 99.9% similar or 100% same?

On that day is not so commonly used as that day. We would really only say on that day when we are referring to some specific, special day.
