What’s the difference between DEPOIS and APÓS in European Portuguese? 🇵🇹
Both words can mean “after”, but they aren’t always used in the same way. And there’s one very common mistake that Portuguese learners make.

In this episode, I’ll explain how to use DEPOIS and APÓS correctly in European Portuguese, including:
- Why we say “depois de”
- Why “após de” is incorrect
- The difference between depois and após in everyday Portuguese
- Which one sounds more natural in conversation
- Simple examples to help you remember the difference

If you’re learning Portuguese from Portugal and want to speak more naturally and avoid common grammar mistakes, this lesson is for you.
