124 at the end of the day
«В конце дня». Также говорят when all's said and done (когда всё сказано и сделано), или in the end (в конце), или after all (после всего). At the end of the day не имеет ничего общего со временем, а выражает особое значение чего-либо, акцентирует, подчёркивает что-либо. Это выражение звучит умно и солидно, но ничего особенного не означает. Политики в особенности любят использовать эту фразу.English-Russian dictionary of expressions > at the end of the day
