How it's used
Functions as both a noun meaning 'a result' and an adverb meaning 'in the end' or 'consequently'. When used as an adverb, it often introduces a final outcome that might be contrary to previous expectations or efforts. It frequently pairs with 係 to emphasize the finality of a situation.
Examples
He worked hard for a long time, but in the end, he still failed.
You've tried so many times, what was the result?
Related words
Common mistake
Avoid using it as a direct translation for 'so' or 'therefore' in every context, as it specifically implies a final outcome rather than a simple logical progression. For simple causality, use 咁樣 or 所以 instead.
