Can you explain the word “hitherto”…?
I’m somewhat naive about vocabulary and explanations from the dictionary. I looked up “hitherto”, but the definition and example setence wasn’t very clear and I still don’t fully understand it.
Can someone explain hitherto is clearer words (different from the dictionary) and perhaps give me a simple sentence that contains the word hitherto? Thanks. >.~

“Hither” is an old way of saying “here”: “hither and thither” means “here and there.”
So “hitherto” means “here to” or “up until here” or “to this point here.”

It means “up to this point (in time).” You could say that you now understand a word that you hitherto did not comprehend.
