It is a concept that can be used as <strong>adverb<\/strong> or as <strong>noun<\/strong>, always linked to a <strong>Preterite time<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The most common use of yesterday refers to <strong>day immediately preceding today's day<\/strong>.  By <strong>example<\/strong>: if today is Friday, yesterday was Thursday.  As can be seen, yesterday is the day before the current one.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_81523\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-81523\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/ayer.jpg\" alt=\"Calendar\" width=\"640\" height=\"426\" class=\"size-full wp-image-81523\"  \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-81523\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Yesterday is the day that preceded today.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>The preceding day<\/h2>\n<p>It can be said that yesterday refers to a <strong>very close past<\/strong>.  That is why the notion is used frequently in everyday life, since its <strong>effects<\/strong> usually continue in force: <em>\"Yesterday I hit my leg and it still hurts\"<\/em>, <em>\"Today I am not going to cook because there was food left over from yesterday\"<\/em>, <em>\"In my house we have no Internet connection since yesterday\"<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>If we position ourselves in the <strong>Present<\/strong> (the <strong>today<\/strong>) of a timeline, the day before is the <strong>Yesterday<\/strong>, while the one before yesterday is the <strong>the day before yesterday<\/strong>.  Looking to the future, the day that follows today is the <strong>morning<\/strong> and then comes the <strong>day after tomorrow<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>The temporal order, therefore, is as follows: the day before yesterday - yesterday - today (the current day) - tomorrow - the day after tomorrow.<\/p>\n<h2>Yesterday as past in general<\/h2>\n<p>The <strong>idea<\/strong> yesterday can also be used to refer to a <strong>more distant or undefined past<\/strong>.  In fact, talking about yesterday makes it possible to mention the <strong>weather<\/strong> <strong>preterite<\/strong> in its broadest sense.<\/p>\n<p><em>\"The customs of yesterday tend to be strange to us today\"<\/em>, <em>\"My psychologist told me that I should not live in yesterday since I have to deal with the present\"<\/em> and <em>\"His eyes, bright yesterday, have lost their light since the tragedy happened\"<\/em> are <strong>expressions<\/strong> who use the term in this way.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_81524\" style=\"width: 650px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-81524\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/pasado.jpg\" alt=\"Preterite\" width=\"640\" height=\"396\" class=\"size-full wp-image-81524\"  \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-81524\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Yesterday can be referred to to refer to the past in general.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h2>The importance of moving forward<\/h2>\n<p>From the <strong>philosophy<\/strong>, psychology, sociology and other sciences have studied how yesterday affects people and communities.  It is usually understood that <strong>the present is, to a greater or lesser extent, a consequence of yesterday<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>This means that, at a general level, <strong>conduct<\/strong> and the feelings of an individual are tied to experiences of his past.  Yet yesterday must be <em>\"indicted\"<\/em> (understood, accepted) to have a full or peaceful present.<\/p>\n<p>Suppose a <strong>man<\/strong> he suffered abuse in his childhood by his parents.  That yesterday surely conditioned his development and shaped his personality, but it is not a determining factor so that he is not happy in adulthood or that he cannot build a healthy bond with his own children.<\/p>\n<p>In a <strong>society<\/strong>, yesterday is analyzed by historians.  Although what happened years, decades and centuries ago is key to understanding the circumstances of the present of a people, it should not be an anchor that prevents moving forward or projecting the future.<\/p>\n<h2>\"Yesterday\" in music<\/h2>\n<p>It is interesting to note that many <strong>songs<\/strong> they are titled <strong><em>\"Yesterday\"<\/em><\/strong>, reflecting the importance of this word.  On <strong>1993<\/strong>, two great artists included songs titled this way in their albums: <strong>Luis Miguel<\/strong> (On the disk <strong><em>\"Aries\"<\/em><\/strong>) and <strong>Gloria Estefan<\/strong> (on <strong><em>\"My land\"<\/em><\/strong>).<\/p>\n<p>Closer in time <strong>Enrique Iglesias<\/strong> recorded <strong><em>\"Yesterday\"<\/em><\/strong>  for his record work <strong><em>\"Euphoria\"<\/em><\/strong>, which came out to the <strong>sale<\/strong> on <strong>2010<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, one cannot fail to mention <strong><em>\"Yesterday\"<\/em><\/strong>  (<strong><em>\"Yesterday\"<\/em><\/strong>, in our <strong>idiom<\/strong>), the classic composed of <strong>Paul MCCARTNEY<\/strong> which is part of the album <strong><em>\"Help!\"<\/em><\/strong>  from <strong>the Beatles<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"kk-star-ratings kksr-auto kksr-align-center kksr-valign-bottom\"\n    data-payload='{&quot;align&quot;:&quot;center&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;5592&quot;,&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;default&quot;,&quot;valign&quot;:&quot;bottom&quot;,&quot;ignore&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;reference&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;count&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;legendonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;readonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;score&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;starsonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;best&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;gap&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;greet&quot;:&quot;Rate this post&quot;,&quot;legend&quot;:&quot;0\\\/5 - (0 votes)&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;24&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;Yesterday&quot;,&quot;width&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;_legend&quot;:&quot;{score}\\\/{best} - ({count} {votes})&quot;,&quot;font_factor&quot;:&quot;1.25&quot;}'>\n            \n<div class=\"kksr-stars\">\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-inactive\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"1\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"2\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"3\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"4\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"5\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-active\" style=\"width: 0px;\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n                \n\n<div class=\"kksr-legend\" style=\"font-size: 19.2px;\">\n            <span class=\"kksr-muted\">Rate this post<\/span>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday is a term that comes from Latin ad heri.
