AFTER
Time
Preposition ► You can usually translate after referring to a point in time using después de:
Please ring after six Por favor, llama después de las seis
I'll phone you after the match Te llamaré después del partido
... Francoism after Franco...... el franquismo después de Franco... ► To translate after + ((period of time)), you can also use al cabo de in more formal Spanish:
After a year in the army, he had had enough Después de (estar) un año en el ejército or Al cabo de un año en el ejército, no lo soportaba más ► Use más tarde que or después que w ith names of people and personal pronouns when they stand in for a verb:
He got there half an hour after us or after we did Llegó allí media hora más tarde que nosotros or después que nosotros ► Translate after + ((-ing)) using después de + ((infinitive)):
Don't go swimming immediately after eating No te bañes justo después de comer
Conjunction ► When the action in the after clause has already happened, and the subjects of the two clauses are different, you can generally translate after using después de que. This can be followed either by the {indicative} or, especially in formal or literary Spanish, by the {subjunctive}:
I met her after she had left the company La conocí después de que dejó or dejara la empresa ► When the action in the after clause has not happened yet or had not happened at the time of speaking, cuando is more common than después de que, though both translations are possible. In both cases, use the {subjunctive}:
We'll test the brakes after you've done another thousand miles Comprobaremos los frenos cuando or después de que haya recorrido mil millas más ► If the subject of both clauses is the same, des pués de + ((infinitive)) is usually used rather than después de que:
He wrote to me again after he retired Me volvió a escribir después de jubilarse This construction is also sometimes used in colloquial Spanish even when the subjects are different:
After you left, the party ended Después de irte tú, se terminó la fiesta For further uses and examples, see main entry

USAGE:

(1.) Русские наречия затем, после, а потом в предложении типа я сделаю домашнее задание, а затем/после пойду гулять передаются двояко: или наречиями (and) afterwards, (and) then или предложной группой and after that. Предлог after в этих случаях без последующего имени существительного или местоимения употребляться не может: ср. we went for a short swim and walked home afterwards/and after that we went home/and went home after that мы немного покупались, а потом пошли домой. (2.) Русское словосочетание "спустя/через несколько лет" также передается либо предложной группой after some years, либо наречной группой some years later, которые различаются местом в предложении - предложная группа, обычно, стоит в начале предложения, наречная же группа - в конце: after some years they parted или they parted some years later они расстались через/спустя несколько лет, через/спустя несколько лет они расстались
