Latin Roots

by Amanda

Dear Latin Teacher,

What does the Latin Root Post mean?

Thanks, Amanda


Dear Amanda,

Post means either after or behind, as a preposition or an adverb. When used as a preposition, it takes an accusative noun to complete its meaning. E.g. post meridiem means after noon.

Hope this helps, and thanks for asking a Latin teacher.

Sincerely,

John
