BUZZWORDS' Language Point after & afterwards.

Be careful! When we use after we need to say after + something.


Examples.
After the party I went home by taxi.

After the exam I went to sleep for ten hours. After class I often play football. The break up with her boyfriend made her very depressed, and after this she didnt fall in love again for a year.

We use afterwards on its own.


Examples I spent three hours on Facebook, and afterwards my eyes hurt. We wrote the words in our books. Afterwards I wrote some sentences using the words.
