at the earliest[edit]

Would you say "at the earliest" to indicate the most early possibility? Also, would you say "at the last" to indicate the most last possibility of something? Or is that said in a different way? Thanks 94.211.59.112 16:59, 23 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

  1. Yes.
  2. "at the latest" instead of "at the last".
    latest, not last, is the superlative of late.
