| How about some examples? Before: "I have never seen that car before." "Before you go out, comb your hair." "To go where no man has gone before." Ago: "Many years ago dragons roamed the land." "I saw her leave about 30 minutes ago." "That happened many moons ago." Earlier: "Earlier today the temperature reached 100F." "Bill arrived at work earlier on friday as traffic was light." Back: "Back before the guns were invented, swords were a very popular weapon." "Go back to the start of the race." "It is impossible to back in time." "Parking can be found back behind the store." Hope this helps a bit. Chris http://www.hearseesay.com |
