Hitherto

Since Ben talked about looking up definitions to unfamiliar words, I thought I'd post the definition of "hitherto." It is an adverb that means "until this time" or "up to now."

Examples from Freud's On Dreams:

"...logical links which have hitherto held physical material together..." (p41)
"Hitherto philosophers have had no occasion to concern themselves..." (p62)
"...make a first approach to this hitherto unknown topic..." (p62)

See, Ben and Claudia? We do look up words! Haha
See you guys tomorrow!
