Questions & Answers about Eers nadat aanspreeklikheid bevestig is, betaal die lugdiens vir die oornagverblyf.
What does eers nadat mean, and why isn’t it just nadat?
Eers nadat means only after.
- nadat = after
- eers nadat = only after / not until after
So the sentence is more specific than a simple after. It means the airline will pay only once that condition has been met.
Compare:
- Nadat aanspreeklikheid bevestig is, betaal die lugdiens...
= After liability has been confirmed, the airline pays... - Eers nadat aanspreeklikheid bevestig is, betaal die lugdiens...
= Only after liability has been confirmed does the airline pay...
So eers adds the idea of not before then.
Why is bevestig is at the end instead of is bevestig?
