뜻
Refers to a past time.
문화적 배경
In French business culture, arriving 'plus tôt' (5-10 minutes) is seen as a sign of reliability and respect. In Quebec, you might hear 'plus de bonne heure' used interchangeably with 'plus tôt' in casual speech. The distinction between 'plutôt' and 'plus tôt' is a common spelling error even for native speakers in text messages.
The Space Matters
Always put a space between 'plus' and 'tôt' when talking about time. One word 'plutôt' is a different animal!
Que vs De
Remember: 'plus tôt QUE' (earlier than) but 'plus tôt DE 5 minutes' (5 minutes earlier).
