  4. in the end

in the end

/ɪn ðiː ɛnd/
最终

In the end, she decided to quit her job and travel the world.

最终,她决定辞职环游世界。


neutral

经过一段时间后最终发生的结果

After many failures, they succeeded in the end.

经过多次失败后,他们最终成功了。

I thought he would change, but in the end, he stayed the same.

我以为他会改变,但最终他依然如故。

强调结果的最终性,与'finally'或'at last'意义相近,但更强调时间的推移。

搭配

in the end最终at the end在...结束时(指时间点)

同义词

finallyeventuallyultimatelyat last

反义词

at the beginninginitiallyfirst

相关短语

at the end of the day短语
说到底(强调根本结论)
come to an end短语动词
结束

专业提示

区分'at the end'与'in the end'

'at the end'指具体时间点(如'At the end of the month'),而'in the end'强调经过过程后的最终结果。例如:'At the end of the concert, everyone applauded'(具体时间点) vs 'In the end, she apologized'(经过过程后的结果)。

黄金法则

使用场景

用于总结长期过程、困难经历或复杂局面的最终结果。避免用于描述即时或短期事件。例如不宜说'In the end, I ate lunch'(应用'finally'或'at last')。

词源

源自古英语短语'in þæm endum'(在...尽头),'end'源自原始日耳曼语'*andja-'(终点)。15世纪后演变为现代用法,强调时间推移后的结果。

用法说明

1. 通常用于总结或强调最终结果,不带感情色彩。 2. 与'at the end'(指具体时间点)不同,后者强调时间节点(如'At the end of the movie')。 3. 可置于句首、句中或句末,但位置变化不影响意义。
