Častá chyba:
Learners sometimes write it as two words (*there after*), which is incorrect; it is always one word. Another common mistake is confusing "thereafter" with "therefore" or "thereby"; "thereafter" refers only to time (after that), not to reason or method. In informal speech and writing, learners may overuse "thereafter" where "after that" or "then" would sound more natural.
