Is "Subsequently" the same as "Consequently"? They sound similar.

Great question! They are different. "Subsequently" just means it happened NEXT in time (បន្ទាប់មក). "Consequently" means it happened as a RESULT of the first action (ជាលទ្ធផល/ដោយហេតុនេះ). schedule vs lightbulb

Can I use "Prior to" instead of "Before" every time?

Grammatically, yes! However, "Prior to" is very formal. You wouldn't say "I eat breakfast prior to school" in daily life. Use it mainly in academic writing, technical manuals, or professional settings. work

I get confused when they say "before X, do Y". How do I stop getting it wrong in the listening test?

That is a classic IELTS/TOEFL trap! When you hear "before" or "prior to", write down the two actions immediately, then draw an arrow. (Action Y) arrow_forward (Action X). Don't trust the order you hear the words! edit_note
