Contexto cultural
The 'șezătoare' was a traditional evening gathering in Romanian villages where people worked, sang, and told stories. 'Ieri seară' would have been the time to discuss what happened at the previous night's gathering. Evening is the prime time for 'ieșit în oraș' (going out). Most social life happens after 7 PM, making 'ieri seară' the most common timeframe for social recaps. News programs often start with 'Ieri seară...' to report on events that happened after the previous day's main broadcast. Dinner (cina) is a significant family moment. 'Ieri seară' often implies time spent around the dinner table.
