vs entonces

So, I'm guessing you would use this as "Eat your dinner and then play outside" whereas entonces is "If you want money, then work for it". Can someone verify?

Tips to remember the word "luego":
– Link "luego" to the English word "later" due to its temporal meaning and similar pronunciation.
– Remember the phrase “Hasta luego!” which is commonly used in Spanish to mean “See you later!” This can help reinforce the connection to its meaning related to time.

Explanations:
– "Luego" is an adverb commonly used to indicate a point in time subsequent to another. It translates to "then" or "later" in English when referring to time.

Other words that mean the same thing:
– Después (afterwards)
– Más tarde (later)
– A continuación (subsequently)

Alternate meanings like slang:
– In some Spanish-speaking regions, "luego" can be used informally to mean "soon" or "in a little while".
