Second of all
Used as an adverb phrase, sometimes added after saying ‘‘
first of all’’. Thus the words ‘‘of all’’ are sometimes added to ‘‘second’’ in colloquial oral speech although it is generally considered either
improper or, at best, unnecessary to do so in terms of grammar and logic, especially considering that it should be enough to use ‘‘of all’’ only once, that is to say after ‘‘first’’, and no matter how many elements are supposed to be listed.Adverb phrase used
by way of emphasis, often to let someone know that one is not is a
good mood, or has been offended by something.One would be right in thinking that this adverb phrase is a way to make some particular matter sound more important than it actually is.Probably widely used in the entire English-speaking world, definitely quite of common usage in English Canada.
