HSK 3 Adverbs

终于

Finally with 终于

Structure 终于 + Verb + 了

终于 (zhōngyú) is "finally / at last", after waiting or effort: 我终于找到工作了 = "I finally found a job". It almost always refers to a desired outcome and usually closes with 了. It goes before the verb. To list steps ("lastly") you use 最后, not 终于.

Examples

  • zhōngzhǎodàogōngzuòle

    I finally found a job.

  • zhōngláile

    He finally came.

  • zhōngdàojiāle

    Finally home.

Levels are indicative: they follow the standard Chinese Grammar Wiki (AllSet Learning) progression, not an official HSK 3.0 mapping. We never assign levels by eye.
