“馬后炮”本是一個象棋術語，意思是在“馬”后面加一顆“炮”，將對方的軍（check, put the other player's king under direct attack）。后來人們用“馬后炮”比喻事后采取措施，無濟于事；或事情發(fā)生后才提出批評或建議，表示自己有先見之明的人（a person who criticizes or suggests alternative cours of action from a position of hindsight after the event in question），也稱“事后諸葛亮（cond guesr, be wi after the event）”。

例句：

考試都完了，你才說幫我復習功課，這豈不是馬后炮嗎？ You come and offer to help with my lessons only after the examination. Isn’t that a bit too late?

他是個馬后炮。 He is a cond-guesr.

事后諸葛亮人人都會做。 It is easy to be wi after the event.
