Definition: In the recent past
Alright class, settle down and letโs take a look! Thatโs a very good start from the dictionary โ โIn the recent past.โ Letโs break that down a little further. Think of it like this: "Recentlyโ means something happened not long ago . It's about things that are fresh, new, and just occurred. Imagine you just finished your homework - you could say "I recently completed my math assignment!" That means it was done very recently โ in the last little while. Itโs like a blink of an eye, or maybe a short week, depending on how recent we're talking about! Does that rhyme and make sense? Do you have any questions about when something might be considered "recently"?
