N1 Gramática 5/60

〜てからというもの

Ever since A, things have changed (and stayed changed)

Formação

  • Vて形 + からというもの

Explicação

A てからというもの B means that ever since A, which was a turning point, the state in B has continued. B describes a big change in behavior or circumstances compared to before. It sounds more emotional than plain てから. B cannot be a single event, an intention or a command.
