Asking this for my Japanese girlfriend. I know “before a day” is incorrect but I can’t explain why.
Thanks for the help!

Welcome to SE! Could you provide more context? There are times when either could be correct. "Before a day goes by, I will rule the world! MUAHAHAHAHA!"

Maybe you mean one day or within 24 hours or before the end of the day, but it's just guessing without more context. What are you trying to say?
