Not an English native speaker, I would use ‘of the year’. The original sounds to me close to its literal meaning (during the period of\covering each day of the year); while ‘of the year’ could be read as all-pervading, perceptible in every sphere of life. |

As a native English speaker, I agree that "of the year" sounds more natural here. |

By the way, do you see any difference: a native English speaker\an English native speaker\a native speaker of English (have come across all three)? |

While the other two mean the same, 'an English native speaker', to me, appears to be a native speaker of England. _________________ Anglophile

I'd rather like Eugene to think of it in terms of his own logic and reason than make a reference which may not always be as reliable. _________________ Anglophile
