What's the difference between "ago" and "before"? Can anybody make some sentences as well? Thanks

Question

Answer

Ago = in the past.  I was living in China a year ago.  I went to Hong Kong about a year and a half ago.  How long ago did you start to study English?  I was young long ago, now I'm old.

Before = sooner than something else; earlier in time than some other event or happening.  I want to see you again before I leave.  Before I visit China again I need to get a visa.  I lived in America before I lived in China.  I was young before I got old.

Good luck to you!
