Finally、at last、lastly 和 in the end 這四個字或片語都當副詞用,除了 lastly 外,finally、at last 和 in the end 均意為「最後;終於」,但用法並不相同。(請參見「At the beginning 還是 in the beginning?At the end 還是 in the end 呢?」一文)

Finally 意為「最後;終於」,通常是指在一段長時間或遭遇一些困難之後。就此意思而言,finally 通常位在句子的中間,亦即位在主詞和主動詞之間 (即普通動詞之前),或位在語氣助動詞或第一個助動詞之後,或位在當主動詞的 BE 動詞之後。例如:

We finally got home at midnight. (我們終於在午夜時分回到了家)After months of looking John finally found a job. (找了好幾個月之後,約翰終於找到了一份工作)

Finally 還意為「最終地」,指事情已經不可改變。就此意思而言,finally 在句中的位置與上述同。例如:

The plan hasn’t been finally approved. (該計畫還沒有獲得最終批准)The exact amount has not been finally decided. (確實的數量尚未底定)

Finally 亦可用來表示所說的事物中的最後一項,意為「最後」。此時它通常位在句首。例如:

Finally, I’d like to say many thanks for your assistance. (最後,我要說多謝你們的協助)Finally, I’d like to thank everyone for coming along this evening. (最後,我要感謝各位今晚光臨)

At (long) last 意為「終於,最終」,通常是指在一段長時間的等待、延宕 (而出現不耐煩的情緒) 之後。At last 除了可放在上述 finally 的位置外,亦經常置於句首或句末。例如:

My father has at last bought me the bicycle he promised me. (我父親終於把他答應送我的腳踏車買給我了)At last they reached Hanoi. (他們終於到達河內)At long last the government is starting to listen to our problems. (政府終於開始關注我們的問題了)The president is here at last!! We’ve been waiting one and a half hours. (總統終於到達!!我們已經等候一個半小時了)Fiona’s finished her essay at last! (費歐娜終於把論文寫完了!)

Lastly 係用來指列舉的最後一項,意為「最後 (一點、一項等)」。例如:

And lastly, remember that you arrive at the airport right on time tomorrow. (最後我要提醒大家明天要非常準時到達機場) (正) And finally, remember that you arrive at the airport right on time tomorrow. (正) And at last, remember that you arrive at the airport right on time tomorrow. (誤)We need to learn subjects, verbs, objects and, lastly, complements. (我們必須學習主詞、動詞、受詞,還有補語) (正) We need to learn subjects, verbs, objects and complements in the end. (誤)In accepting this award, I would like to thank the producer, the director, the scriptwriter, and, lastly, the film crew. (獲得這個獎項,我要感謝製片人、導演、編劇,還有全體拍攝人員) (正) In accepting this award, finally (or at long last or in the end) I would like to thank the producer, the director, the scriptwriter, and the film crew. (誤)

In the end 意為「最後;終於」,通常是指在一個冗長的過程或經過許多的討論、考慮或修正之後的結論。In the end 通常置於句首或句末,主要用於口語。例如:

In the end, she decided not to marry him. (最後她決定不嫁他)Everything will be all right in the end. (最終一切都會好的)Cindy was thinking about going to Japan, but in the end she went to South Korea. (辛蒂一直打算要去日本,但最後卻去了南韓)And then, in the end, after months of discussion Mr. Smith decided to sell his mansion. (然後,經過數個月的討論之後,史密斯先生終於決定出售他的豪宅) Finally、at last、lastly 還是 in the end 呢? 2018-09-10T00:02:51+08:00 2018-09-10T00:02:28+08:00 admin分享並推薦本文:分享到 LINE(在新視窗中開啟)按一下以分享至 Facebook(在新視窗中開啟)分享到 Twitter(在新視窗中開啟) 延伸閱讀:Eventually 不可用於列舉英文列舉方式知多少?At the beginning 還是 in the beginning?At the end 還是 in the end 呢?在商業寫作中,company 和 manager 等普通名詞可以大寫Included, including 和 inclusive (of)Q:The project begins in two more weeks. 可以寫成 The project will begin in two more weeks. 嗎?
