In this lesson, we learn the difference between three important Italian adverbs: “alla fine”, “finalmente”, and “infine”. Even though these words look and sound similar, they have different meanings and uses in Italian.
The adverb “alla fine” is used to indicate something that happened last in a series of events or actions, or to indicate the final outcome of an event.
The adverb “finalmente” is used to indicate something that is finally happening. The adverb “infine” is used to talk about the final step of a list of steps.
