Just as 以前 can be used to talk events before a specific time, 以后 can describe actions that happened after a specific time.

The structure is:

Time + 以后, Subject + Verb + Object

The time can be a specific time or date, or an action or event. Some examples:

  • 十月 以后,我 在 北京。
  • 见到 那 个 女孩 以后,我们 一起 去 咖啡店 了。
  • 喝 啤酒 以后,我 很 高兴。
