Fin Vs Final
¿Cuál es la frase correcta?

Quiero salir esta noche para celebrar ‘el final’ de mis exámenes.

En este contexto encajarían tanto "fin" como "final". Ambos son casi siempre sinónimos con el sentido de "end"; pero sólo "fin" presenta el significado de "propósito" (purpose). Por ello y a menudo, solemos reservar "fin" para "purpose" y "final" para "end"; aunque esto no es nada excluyente, solamente hablo de costumbre.

Un saludo.
