It is a <strong>adverbial phrase<\/strong> that alludes to <strong>what is known after analyzing or reviewing an issue<\/strong> or that refers to a <strong>demonstration<\/strong> which is carried out by passing from the effect to the cause.<\/p>\n<p>The usual thing is that the <strong>idea<\/strong> from <em>a posteriori<\/em> appears linked to its opposite: <strong><em>a priori<\/em><\/strong>.  A knowledge <em>a posteriori<\/em> is related to the <strong>experience<\/strong> since it is generated or obtained <strong>after accessing something<\/strong>.  Knowledge <em>a priori<\/em>Instead, it maintains a certain independence from experience because it is associated with the universal.<\/p>\n<p>Everything <strong>judgment<\/strong> done <em>a posteriori<\/em> it is empirical and can be verified by experience.  For example: <em>\"There are people who are redheads\"<\/em>.  This is a knowing <em>a posteriori<\/em>, which arises after observing an individual who has reddish hair.  The same can be said of expressions like <em>\"Not all cars are green\"<\/em> Y <em>\"There are dogs that have long hair\"<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike knowledge <em>a posteriori<\/em>, knowledge <em>a priori<\/em> don't need one <strong>investigation<\/strong> to prove its veracity. <em>\"All parents have or had at least one child\"<\/em> it is knowledge <em>a priori<\/em>: being a father implies that, at some point, the person has had a child, either biological or adoptive.<\/p>\n<p>The use of these and other Latin phrases generates diverse responses in people, since on the one hand there are those who enjoy very much to include terms of foreign origin in their speech, and on the opposite extreme are those who prefer a <strong>communication<\/strong> cleaner, based entirely on the language itself.<\/p>\n<p>Since it is basically a matter of taste and opinion, it is not convenient to further fuel the fire that divides these two groups by saying that one of them is wrong.  However, when the desire to combine terms and expressions from different languages \u200b\u200bleads to <strong>an incorrect or inaccurate use of words<\/strong>, it becomes difficult to encourage this custom, since it threatens communication.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/Aposteriori.jpg\" alt=\"A posteriori\" width=\"260\" height=\"200\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-45228\"\/>In other words, it is appropriate to ask ourselves what is the reason for using <em>a posteriori<\/em> Y <em>a priori<\/em>, if we can choose their equivalents in Spanish.  What is the benefit offered by this <strong>fusion<\/strong> linguistic, dangerous if any, based on the forced inclusion of foreign expressions that often lead to errors in pronunciation and spelling, as well as distortions due to lack of knowledge?<\/p>\n<p>It is known that many people say <em>roughly<\/em>, <em>modus operandis<\/em>, <em>modus vivendis<\/em>, <em>ipso facto<\/em> Y <em>of my own accord<\/em>, instead of <em>roughly<\/em>, <em>modus operandi<\/em>, <em>modus vivendi<\/em>, <em>ipso facto<\/em> Y <em>motu proprio<\/em>, respectively.  In this list we can see various <strong>mistakes<\/strong>, such as the deformation of certain terms due to similarity to others in our language (when we change <em>own<\/em> for <em>own self<\/em>), the incorrect inclusion of prepositions (such as <em>to<\/em> Y <em>from<\/em>) and placing an extra 's' at the end of the second term (as in <em>operandis<\/em> Y <em>you live<\/em>).<\/p>\n<p>This shows us that venturing to include foreign terms in speech is not easy, since it requires very specific knowledge to do so with <strong>precision<\/strong>.  Therefore, it is recommended to use Spanish expressions to avoid any unnecessary mistakes.  Let's look at two examples in which <em>a posteriori<\/em>: <em>Don't be too quick to jump to conclusions;  it is preferable to do it <strong>in the end<\/strong>\u00ab<\/em>, <em>\u00ab<strong>Later<\/strong>, Arturo finally discovered the whole truth \u00bb<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>\"A posteriori\"<\/em><\/strong>Finally, it is the title of an album that <strong>Enigma<\/strong> threw in <strong>2006<\/strong>.
