Word origin
The word 'finally' originated from the Middle English word 'finaly', which came from the Old French word 'finalment'. It has been used in English since the 14th century. The adverb 'finally' is derived from the adjective 'final', which ultimately comes from the Latin word 'finalis', meaning 'of or pertaining to an end or conclusion'.
