Usage Note
Enfin is a versatile discourse marker: it can mean 'finally' (after a wait), 'at last,' 'in short,' or even signal a mild correction or concession (enfin, je crois — 'well, I think'). In everyday speech it functions as a filler or hesitation word, similar to 'well' or 'I mean' in English.
