Note that to form the Superlative of adverbs, it is similar to the Superlative of adjectives, EXCEPT you only use the definite article le plus / le moins (there is NO agreement with adverbs, as they have NO gender). But one of the examples uses "au":Je le ferai jeudi au plus tard.
I'll do it on Thursday at the latest.

This question relates to:French lesson "Le plus/Le moins = The most/the least (Superlative with Adverbs in French)"

Hi Judy,

Au = à le, hence au plus tard = à le plus tard.

You see, "au" is just the definite article in disguise ;)
