Choice of Words in English: Afterwards or Subsequently?

Choice of Words in English: Afterwards or Subsequently? When to use "afterwards" and "subsequently"?

This very short video shares the information I found in books about English language when choosing between two or more words.

Choosing the right word when writing and speaking is a delicate exercise yet of crucial importance when it comes to the quality of your communication.

As a non-native speaker, I tremendously struggle with improving my English or keeping on improving my English I should say. Several books are available out there for us to read. A few years ago, I opened some of them and found them all pretty boring. Still, I wanted to improve my English and then decided to write these short videos to sum up my readings. The playlist WORD CHOICE gathers all the videos I have written and created so far. There are more to come!
I hope these videos about the choice of words in English will help you too!
