Hi all,
Can the word "recently" cover the past several years?
e.g. Recently, more and more elementary schools in Japan have been introducing tablets into their classes.
If I want to refer to the past several years, do I have to say "in recent years" or "in the past several years" for clarification?
I realized recently that I didn't know the time range covered by recently.
OP
