文化背景
Brazilians often use 'ontem' to emphasize how fast time flies, especially in the phrase 'Parece que foi ontem'. In Portugal, 'ontem' is a staple in fado lyrics, representing the 'saudade' of a time that has passed. The distinction between 'ontem' and 'anteontem' is very sharp; speakers rarely say 'two days ago' when 'anteontem' exists.
