以后 VS 就 Hello Can anybody explain me how to use correctly these two words in chinese? I know 以后 (after) is used to connect two events in time but sometimes it can be omitted and use only 就 instead. When can this happen? Thank you all.

“以后” 和“就” 经常用在一个句子里,表示 when you....., you will..... , e.g, 你吃了药以后,感冒就会好了。 你拿到驾驶执照以后,就可以开车了。 学会中文以后,就可以读中文书了, 这些句子中,“以后”可以省去,意思是一样的, 你吃了药,感冒就会好了。 你拿到驾驶执照,就可以开车了。 学会中文,就可以读中文书了,
