文化的背景
The French 'Grandes Écoles' (elite engineering schools) heavily use these terms, making them a marker of professional status. In Quebec, while 'en aval' is used, English influence sometimes leads to the use of 'en bas de la ligne' (down the line), though 'en aval' remains the standard formal term. The river Meuse is central to Belgian geography; 'en aval' is frequently used in local news regarding water levels and navigation. In countries like Senegal or Mali, 'en aval' is used in the context of large-scale agricultural irrigation projects along the Senegal River.

Not for Time
Don't use it for appointments. 'En aval de 14h' is incorrect. Use 'après 14h'.
