How it's used

Functions as both a temporal adverb meaning from now on and a conjunction indicating a sequence of events. When used to describe a past sequence, it often pairs with 之後 to emphasize the timeline. It carries a slightly more formal tone than the purely colloquial 後尾, which is strictly reserved for narrative storytelling about the past.

Examples

nei5你ji5以hau6後m4唔hou2好zoi3再ci4遲dou3到laa3喇。

Don't be late again from now on.

Common phrases

cung4從ci2此ji5以hau6後

from then on

ji5以hau6後zoi3再gong2講

talk about it later

Common mistake

Learners often confuse 以後 with 後尾. Use 以後 when talking about the future or a general point in time after an event, but use 後尾 specifically when recounting a sequence of events that already happened in the past.
