The term then that we are now going to analyze, we have to explain that it is an adverb that comes from Latin. Exactly it emanates from "loco" which, in turn, derives from "locus", which can be translated as "place" or "site." However, it should not be overlooked that it has more nuances in terms of meaning.
It is an adverb that allows us to refer to that which takes shape after something .
For example: «First we visited the History Museum, then the Museum of Natural Sciences and finally the National Gallery of Art» , «My father worked in a multinational pharmaceutical company and then created his own company» , «I'll calm down later to talk to my daughter .
What is done "later" is done later in time than a preceding action; that is, subsequently . If we analyze the first of the examples mentioned above, we will notice that the speaker visited the History Museum first and then the Science Museum . Similarly, the second example refers to a father who at a certain age worked in a multinational firm and later developed his own business . Finally, the protagonist of the third example states that he will calm down after communicating with his descendant, and not before.
Then it can also be used for the development of different adverbial phrases and expressions . "See you later," in this context, is used as a farewell: "I'm going to buy bread and come back. See you later!" , "It was a pleasure to see you, see you later" , "I'll go get some air and I'll be back: I won't be long, see you later!" .
"Of course," meanwhile, indicates something undoubted or true : "Of course I'll go to my cousin's birthday party," "It's easier to do things this way, of course," "I'd like to buy a new one." car but, of course, I would have to save first .
One of the most famous phrases in history uses the term in question. We are referring to "I think, therefore I am" (Cogito ergo sum). It is a Latin phrase that was developed by the French philosopher Renatus Descartes (1596 – 1650).
Specifically, it serves as the fundamental pillar of his philosophical approach and also of what was called Western rationalism.
With this phrase, what is made clear is that a person's thoughts, and of course what their existence is, are undoubtable. That is to say, they are true and from that premise we can raise other types of questions that will also be certainties.
In addition to everything indicated, we cannot ignore that this word is also used in art. A good example of this is the song titled “Later we talk.” This is performed by the group Sangre Felina and was presented specifically in 2009. Likewise, it is interesting to know that it is part of the record album called "What does love taste like without me?"
