IN THE END: meaning and examples

Good morning. Today we are going to contrast yesterday's expression at the end of something with an expression that looks very similar, but has a slightly different meaning. Today's expression is: in the end It means: finally or after a long period of time. Example 1: He spent eight years trying to pass the civil-service exams (oposiciones). In the end he gave up and decided to start his own business. Example 2: It was another typical Hollywood film. In the end, after lots of confusion and misunderstandings, the boy gets the girl and they live happily ever after. If you have any questions about this expression, please don't hesitate to contact us. Have a great day and an excellent weekend. Remember that tomorrow is a holiday in Catalonia so there will be no Daily Vitamin!
