Question about حتى Here is the sentence: شيء لا يريد أن يفصح عنه أو يعترف به حتى بينه و بين نفسه So, the translation of this sentences in book appears as "[It is] something he did not want to express or acknowledge, except to himself" while I tended to translate the "حتى" as "not even to himself". Am I right? If not, what the sentence have to be like for it being translated as I think? Thanks in advance

Yes you are right, its translation is "not even to himself" or just "even to himself". حظّا موفّقا :)

You're 100% right, حتى = Even But I would translate it like is: "It's something that he didn't want to talk about or confess not even to himself."
