Carbon today/tomorrow instead of in x hours

I'm using Carbon to modify dates in a project. Now I need get the date as today, tomorrow etc. so I tried it with: 

\Carbon\Carbon::enableHumanDiffOption(\Illuminate\Support\Carbon::ONE_DAY_WORDS);

$date->diffForHumans();

But for today and tomorrow I receive string like: In 5 hours and not tomorrow.

For today i receive: 16 hours ago and not today.

The date is from an mysql date column, eg.: 2018-05-29.

I read that the needed functionality is currently only available for en and fr but also with Carbon::setLocale('en'); i don't receive the needed string.

Using the latest version.

as far as Carbon is concerned I haven't seen diffForHumans() returning as Today or Tomorrow. But there is an hack to fulfil your requirements

$now = Carbon::now();
$future = $now->addDays(30);
echo $now->diffInDays($now->copy()->addDay());

this will return 1 if when dates are of tomorrow, and return 0 when dates are of today so you can now manage it with a simple if statement. For online workaround you can check carbon APIs here
