after和later的用法区别

这两个词的区别我懂，after强调等待的时间较短，可以是几分钟、几秒钟，后面的时间就可以开始了，而later强调等待的时间较长，可以是几个小时，甚至几天。给大家简单总结了两个词的含义、发音以及用法，先大概的了解一下~~

接下来让我们看下after和later的其他区别：

1 时间先后顺序不同

After表示在某个事件后面，后发生或完成的事情，而later则表示在某个时间段之后或晚一些时候的时间。

例如：

- After the party, we went to the club 

派对之后，我们去了俱乐部。

- I will finish my work later in the afternoon 

我会在下午晚些时候完成我的工作。

2 等待时间的不同

After强调等待的时间较短，可以是几分钟、几秒钟，后面的时间就可以开始了，而later强调等待的时间较长，可以是几个小时，甚至几天。

例如：

- After the traffic light changed, we crossed the street 

交通灯一变，我们就过了马路。

- We will meet each other later in the week 

我们会在本周晚些时候见面。

3 表示时间的不同

After更强调先后，能够表现出先后的顺序。Later则强调时间，强调时间晚一些。所以，这两个词可以交替使用，但语气和用途略有不同。

例如：

- After we eat breakfast, we can go for a walk 

吃早餐后，我们可以去散步。

- I can have lunch later in the day 

我可以在今天的晚些时候吃午餐。

4 语法结构的不同

After通常作为一个从属词，后面接从句，而later则用作副词，可用于句子的中间或结尾。

例如：

- After she finished her work, she went home 

她完成工作后回家了。

- I'll call you later 

我会晚些时候给你打电话的。

5 强调方面不同

After更强调前面的事件，用来指出后面的事件是在前面的事件之后发生的，而later则强调后面的时间，表示在以后的时间内，比之前的时间更晚。

例如：

- After the storm, we had to clean up the mess 

暴风雨过后，我们得清理垃圾。

- Please call me later 

请稍后给我打电话。

　　“A moment after there was a knock at his door" 里after是副词。after在一段时间之后，为副词，表示“后来”或“(一段时间)以后”，此时通常要放在另一时间副词之后(且一般不用于将来时态)。例如：

　　1、He arrived soon [just / shortly] after

　　他不久就到了。

　　2、He returned twenty years after

　　20年后他回来了。
