"See you later in the cafeteria!"

Translation: 一会儿在食堂见！

[MichaelLe3139]

Can I put 一会儿 after 在食堂?

[CinnamonTe1]

I just put 在食堂一会儿见 and it was accepted.

[Wallace863554]

I don't think so. Since 一会儿 in this sentence is referencing WHEN something will happen, it has to come at the front of the sentence.

[KyleDelane6]

It would sure be nice if it had the Chinese-to-English question before the English-to-Chinese question so you could see an example of the grammar before you had to write it

Marosaxamit i think you shouldnt translate that eng sentence directly to chinese cause 以后 means after, afterwards, later but it should be used in a sentence like "他三个小时以后回家" he got back home three hours later or "吃完饭以后我们要开会" we are going to have a meeting after we finish lunch.

[Marosaxamit]

I wrote 以后在食堂见 - It is correct ?

[Anon341685]

For a while, in canteen, see ? Surely there must be a better way to express that. I find the implied "you" rather tricky. It appears in many exercises. Maybe experienced language students find it easier than 'casual mind exercise' folk do.

Think of 一会儿 as "in a while" not "for a while".
