récemment

recently

adverb reh-sah-MAHN Less Common

Usage Note

Récemment is spelled with the -emment ending and pronounced with a nasal final syllable. It typically appears before or after the verb (j'ai récemment vu / je l'ai vu récemment). A common learner error is to confuse récemment with dernièrement, which is slightly more formal and literary.

Examples

"Il a récemment changé de travail."

Natural Translation

He recently changed jobs.
