Advanced Description
This is is an experimental feature. Please report any issues.In Italian, dopo is a very common adverb that is used in everyday conversation. It can be used to talk about events that have already happened or those that will happen in the future. For example, 'Dopo cena andiamo al cinema' means 'After dinner we are going to the cinema.'
Dopo can also be used to indicate a temporal sequence of events. For instance, 'Ho fatto la spesa e dopo sono andato a casa' means 'I went grocery shopping and then I went home.' In this context, dopo is used to show that the second action followed the first one.
It is important to note that in some cases, dopo can be used as a preposition instead of an adverb. When used as a preposition, it means 'behind' or 'after', but in a spatial sense. For example, 'La casa è dopo il ponte' means 'The house is after the bridge.'
