The article deals with jusqu’ici –in English ‘so far’– which, in French, can be considered as a particular case since it is the only adverbial expression in which ici –normally considered as a deictic spatial adverb– in English ‘here’ –fully functions as a deictic temporal adverb. We give a description of a number of features and characteristics concerning jusqu’ici, with a particular attention to contrastive constructions in which the adverb occasionally appears in discourse and to restrictive meaning effects it often triggers. In the end, we can attribute to jusqu’ici the same properties and kinds of construction characterizing two other adverbs, jusqu’à maintenant and jusqu’à present (‘up to now’) which both normally qualify for the status of temporal deictic adverb in French.
