Les traductions anglais - francais sont contradictoires.
The french - english translations are opposites.

Hi,
"It was not until yesterday that" is a continuing time (until).
But in french translation, it seems saying "Only in yesterday that" (specific day).
These are different.
ANyway, I wrote to both of you.

Thanks.
My issue is, this part of the sentence "It was not until..." is translated in french by "It was not only...". So this différence is clear.
I write to both in order to correlate thé 2 sentences.
