Yes, "run after" can generally be used in place of "make after" when you're referring to physically chasing or pursuing something or someone. However, "run after" emphasizes the physical act of running, while "make after" can imply a broader sense of pursuit, not necessarily involving speed or running. For example: "The dog ran after the cat." (emphasizes physical running) "The detective made after the suspect." (could involve pursuit without necessarily running) So, it depends on the context, but in many cases, they can be interchangeable if the focus is on pursuing or chasing.
I really needed such videos 😊

We can also say run after instead of make after, right?
