    Default Meaning of 'late sleeper'

    I always go to bed late.

    Can I call myself a 'late sleeper'?

    Thanks.

    No, that sounds like you sleep late in the morning, the same meaning as being a late riser.

    I'm a night owl.

    I'm not a teacher, but I write for a living. Please don't ask me about 2nd conditionals, but I'm a safe bet for what reads well in (American) English.
