"后来我回来了"在英语中可以说作 "I returned later" 或 "I came back later."
这个短语来源于拉丁文 "post" 和 "latus," 其中 "post" 意思是 "after," 而 "latus" 意思是 "carried." 因此 "postlatus" 的意思就是 "after being carried." 这个词最终被缩写为 "post," 并且被借用为英语中的副词 "later," 意思是 "在之后."
例句：
I returned later because I had to finish some work. (后来我回来了因为我还有工作要完成.)
I came back later because I forgot my phone. (后来我回来了因为我忘记了手机.)
