The difference between 以前(yǐ qián) and 以后(yǐ hòu) is very clear from last episode, 以前 means before, so we often see it in a past tense sentence, and 以后 is the opposite, but have you ever wondered that does 以前 always refer to the past, and does 以后 always refer to the future?

Vous connaissez peut-être BlablaCar, le service de covoiturage où on partage le trajet avec d'autres personnes. Maintenant il y a Blabla caisse. Qu'est-ce que c'est? C'est une caisse de supermarché où les clients peuvent prendre leur temps et discuter avec la caissière. C'est tout le contraire des caisses rapides où on scanne nous-mêmes nos achats. Le temps qu'il fait, votre nouvelle recette, des nouvelles de vos enfants, des blagues, vous pouvez discuter de tout avec la caissière comme si vous étiez au marché et discutiez avec votre marchand préféré. Ça rend le supermarché plus humain, n'est-ce pas?

Why national soccer teams DON'T use the colors of their flag?

In the 1970s, renowned Colombian journalist Gonzalo Guillén reported a peculiar story that has since become a memorable anecdote. The tale revolves around a donkey in the town of Sogamoso, who finds himself on the wrong side of the law.

The donkey, in search of fresh grass to graze, wandered onto someone else’s property. This trespassing did not go unnoticed, and the donkey was promptly arrested. He was taken into preventive custody at the local police station, a rather unusual place for a donkey to end up.

But the story takes an even more bizarre turn. During the night, the hungry donkey, perhaps driven by the unfamiliar surroundings or the lack of his usual diet, turned to the only available source of sustenance - the police station’s paperwork. He devoured not only his own case file but also the documents of other detainees.

This incident, while humorous, also serves as a poignant reminder of the often absurd situations that can arise when the worlds of humans and animals intersect. It’s a story that continues to amuse and intrigue, decades after it first made headlines.

This story was originally written by  Gonzalo Guillén and posted on the @HELIODOPTERO X account. 

"Me haces recordar la noticia que redacté en los 70 sobre el burro que fue arrestado en Sogamoso por entrar a pastar en un predio ajeno. Quedó detenido preventivamente en la comisaría de policía y durante la noche se comió con hambre su propio expediente y los de otros presos."

Gonzalo Guillén is a well-known Colombian journalist and researcher. He has been in journalism since 1975 and has worked with various prestigious organizations such as El Tiempo, Colprensa, TV-HOY, La Prensa, El Universo, El País, The Miami Herald, and El Nuevo Herald.
