Later in his life both of his parents and his brothers were frequently after him for money这句话要怎么理解

Answer 1

be after sb for sth 形象点说，就是 “为了某事紧盯着某人”

这整句话意思是：在（估计是“成名之后”）之后的日子里，他父母和兄弟们经常缠着他跟他要钱。

Answer 2

划分句子成分和结构分析有助于理解句子意思：
【Later in his life 时间状语】【 both of his parents and his brothers 主语】【were frequently after 谓语】【him 宾语】【 for money 目的状语】
翻译难点：
Later in his life 在他以后/后来的生活中
both of his parents and his brothers 他的父母和他的弟兄们
were frequently after him 经常跟在他后面
for money （目的是）要钱
加工翻译：
在他以后/后来的生活中， 他的父母和弟兄们经常跟在他屁股后面要钱。
或者：
在他以后/后来的生活中，他的父母和弟兄们经常纠缠着他要钱。

祝你开心如意！
