In German, letzte is commonly used to refer to the last item in a list or the final event in a series. For example, 'die letzte Frage' would mean 'the last question', while 'das letzte Kapitel' would translate to 'the final chapter'.

The word can also be used to describe the most recent occurrence of something. For instance, if someone says 'mein letzter Urlaub' they are referring to their most recent vacation.

It's important to note that letzte changes its form depending on the gender and number of the noun it modifies. This means that it can take different endings such as -er, -es, or -e depending on the context.
