after all

It doesn't look as if we'll be moving after all.

What does this sentence mean?
And how strong is the speaker's determination?
  

Top answer

The sentence simply means that 'we' were going to be moving at one time, but the situation has now changed, and it seems that 'we' are not going to be moving. Nothing is said or implied about the speaker's determination. com/dictionary/english/after-all
