English gets by with one little word, after, but German has three: nach, nachdem and danach. In this episode, Thomas picks up where the 'before' episode left off and shows you when to use each one, along with während, the single German word for during. He finishes with some handy vocabulary for saying just, right and directly before or after something.

Einen wunderschönen guten Morgen, Tag oder vielleicht auch schon Abend. I am back with a new Coffee Break German lesson, and today we are continuing our quest to learn all the German words for before, after, and during. Now, in the last episode, we had a good look at vor, bevor, and davor, all meaning before in English. If you missed that or if you're not familiar with the differences between those words, then I would recommend listening to the previous episode first. If you do know what I'm talking about already, then today will be easy for you because the rules for after and during are very similar. Also, worauf warten wir noch? Let's have a look at nach, nachdem, danach, and während.
