Ago
We use ago after an expression of time
The train went out 10 minutes ago
Ago indicates a finished time and is normally used with a past tense
تشيرالى انتهاء الوقت وعادة ما تستخدم مع الفعل الماضي.

The difference between ago and before

Ago is normally used with a simple past to count back from a present moment
Before is used with a past perfect to count back from a past moment.x
I saw him two years ago. (two years from now)x
I had seen him two years before I went to England
Before can be used without a time expression to mean 'any time before now/then'.x
