In English, 'lastly' is commonly used in formal writing, academic papers, speeches, and structured presentations to organize thoughts logically. In Brazilian Portuguese, 'por último' serves the same function and is equally formal and widely recognized. In Portugal, 'por fim' is often preferred as a more elegant alternative.
