Related to 'previous/earlier' as time sequence (時間的な「前」に関連)
** new change: The usages of for time has been changed since Sep. 2006 ,
taking Jo Chen's suggestion and help from Germany.
"Before" in English and "前" in Japanese/Chinese contain the meaning of "front";
that is opposite of (behind) in the new setting . But since we human walk to the front,
a later thing is in front and an earlier thing is behind of a time.
The German expression is in this way, and it's more logical than others.
English and Japanese users, please be careful about this part.
