Subdomains: A Point of Time with Reference to Other Points of Time: Before, Long Ago, Now, At the Same Time, When, About, After

Definition: pertaining to a point of time preceding another point of time, but with a relatively short interval

Notes: For languages which do not have an adverb meaning ‘recently,’ one can always introduce an equivalent approximate statement in OET ACT 18:2, for example, ‘he met a Jew who only a few days before had come from Italy.’ One cannot be certain as to the interval of time, but a phrase such as ‘a few days before’ can be a satisfactory equivalent.
