Used to indicate a time following another event.
문화적 배경
The 'après-midi' is a sacred time for the 'goûter' (snack) at 4 PM, especially for children. In Quebec, 'après' is sometimes used in the structure 'être après faire quelque chose' to mean 'to be in the middle of doing something', though this is informal. The term 'Après-ski' originated here, describing the social life (drinks, music) after skiing. The phrase 'Après moi, le déluge' is a famous historical reference to the end of the French monarchy's stability.
The 'A' Rule
Both 'After' and 'Après' start with 'A'. This is the easiest way to remember it's not 'before'.
No 'de'!
Never say 'après de la'. It's just 'après la'. This is the #1 mistake for beginners.

'Après' is usually a preposition (followed by a noun), while 'ensuite' is an adverb (used to link sentences).
Both are correct! However, 'le' (masculine) is more common today.
