last = último
I was last in the race. = Fui último en la carrera.
Do you want that last cookie? = ¿Quieres la última galleta?

least = más mínimo, menor, más pequeño, menos importante
at least = por lo menos
the least dangerous option = la opción menos peligrosa

I agree with Rusty.

I will give you some examples about it.

At least I have my car clean today.

Later I will can take the bread of your house.

I hope this can help you.

At least I have my car clean today. :good: you can say this (at least), and there's another way you can use least. what Rusty said.

Later I will can take the bread toof your house. This isn't using last, but later. Later and last are different.

I hopeholethis can help you.
