Paskutiniuose

Paskutiniuose is a Lithuanian locative plural form of the adjective paskutinis, meaning “in the last ones” or “among the most recent occurrences.” It is used to modify nouns in the locative case when referring to the last items in a sequence or group. The form appears with plural nouns and is typically used after prepositions that govern the locative case, indicating location or situation.

In everyday and formal writing, paskutiniuose often accompanies nouns describing events, stages, or groupings that come late in a series. Examples include phrases referring to recent events or stages of processes, such as elections, phases of a project, or meetings.

Examples:

- Paskutiniuose rinkimuose dalyvavo daug žmonių. (Many people participated in the last elections.)

- Paskutiniuose etapuose sprendimai buvo priimti. (Decisions were made in the final stages.)

- Paskutiniuose susitikimuose aptarti klausimai. (Questions were discussed at the most recent meetings.)

Notes:

Paskutiniuose is one of several declined forms of paskutinis. It contrasts with singular locative paskutiniame (in the last one) and with other cases in plural forms. The term is common in news reporting and formal writing when referring to recent events or the later parts of a sequence. See also other inflected forms of paskutinis for comparison.
