Is the sentence correct?

He is the last person at the meeting already to have been mentioned.

to have been mentioned - a perfect infinitive, passive voice, which modifies "person." It could be classified as a reduced clause used as a determiner, because it determines the person in question. The adverb "already" does not really fit.

Thanks! By the way, can we say "He is the last person at the meeting to be mentioned."?

I would write this:

He was the last person at the meeting to be mentioned.

Is there any difference between "to be mentioned" and "to have been mentioned" in this particular case? Thanks!

Not to me. It's just that the second version is quite a mouthful of words to say! I prefer to keep it simple.

Thank you!

Hi CJ,
Just out of my own curiosity, would the sentence carry the same meaning if it were: He was the last person mentioned at the meeting.

grammarfreaksame meaning ... He was the last person mentioned at the meeting.

Yes, and even fewer words!

Thanks CJ!
