final result
The definitive, final result of a process, calculation, competition, or election. It refers to the state after all factors have been taken into account.
Das Endergebnis des Fußballspiels war 2:2.
The final result of the football match was 2–2.
The word is clearly made up of 'Ende' (end) and 'Ergebnis' (result). So it literally means the 'result at the end' and emphasizes that it is the final result, one that can no longer be changed.
Nach einer langen Diskussion stand das Endergebnis fest.
After a long discussion, the final result was settled.
Common verbs used with 'Endergebnis' (final result) are 'feststehen' (to be settled), 'lauten' (to be / to read), and 'bekannt geben' (to announce). They describe the state or communication of the final result.
Das Endergebnis der Wahl wird erst morgen früh bekannt gegeben.
The final result of the election will not be announced until tomorrow morning.
'Endergebnis' (final result) is often described more precisely with adjectives such as 'offiziell' (official), 'endgültig' (final), or 'knapp' (close).
Alle warten auf das offizielle Endergebnis.
Everyone is waiting for the official final result.
