sorry i misspelled the word. i meant "before" in my question instead of "after"
I was thinking if I add the word "by" in front of every noun I wrote earlier would that mean it's the time before something ? and would all those noun sound correct then ?
for example:
by midday - before midday
by sunset - before sunset
by morning - before morning
etc.
