Re: 請問『昨晚』的英文?

除了以上的yesternight, 以下的terms亦有『昨晚』的意思; 誠如Glotynn所說, 多見於詩文:

"yestereven" [adverb]; [noun]
= on the evening of the day preceding the present; the evening last past

"yestereve" (yester-eve) [adverb; noun]
= (a latter form of yestereven) same as yestereven

"yesterevening" [noun]
= (yesterday + evening) same as yestereven

"yestreen" [adverb]
= (Scotch) last evening; last night; yesternight

[Note: "yesternight"比較特殊, 常在"古字今用"的情況下, 出現在現今歌曲的歌詞或口語裏, 意思與用法跟last night/last evening相同。]
