喜樂美語
  1. 1r/ˈlæstli/ · /ˈlɑːstli/最後

    You say lastly when you are telling someone the final thing in a list of things, or the final point in a talk or a piece of writing.

    「lastly」是用來說「這是清單上的最後一項」的字，常跟 firstly、secondly 一起成套出現（它的相反詞是 firstly）。可以想成：你一邊講重點一邊在心裡數數，lastly 就是「數到最後一個了」的那聲。它說的是「位置」，不是「等了很久」——這點跟 at last（終於）差很多；finally 兩種味道都有，lastly 只有清單那一種。
