Is there a word or short phrase that describes a person or animal that is the last survivor of a dying tribe/species?
I'm trying to use the word facetiously to describe something technical and dry. For example, "the XXXX of the widgets," or "XXXX widget," or "widget XXXX." So the more creative the allusion the better!
Best Answer
Here're a few
The vestige of the widgets.
The vestigial widget - People might not know what this means
The last widget - This is pretty common: e.g. The Last Samurai
The surviving widget
The last surviving widget
The final widget
The widget, omega - Requires some thinking to get the idea
