I at length, at last, not till then; just, precisely; only, etc.
I In Latin of every period and description of writing (for syn. cf.: tandem, denique, postremum, primo).
A Enclitically with pronouns, like adeo (but less freq.), just, precisely, especially, exactly, indeed; also translated by an emphasis of the pronoun: id demum lepidumst, Plaut. Pers. 2, 3, 14; cf.: sic sentio, id demum aut potius id solum esse miserum, quod turpe sit, Cic. Att. 8, 8 init.: idem velle atque idem nolle, ea demum firma amicitia est, Sall.

Leg. 3, 17, 38 (but Bait. vos quidem): quae demum causae secundam valetudinem praestent, Cels. praef.: jam vero exsilium, si rerum naturam, non ignominiam nominis quaerimus, quantum demum a perpetua peregrinatione differt? Cic. Tusc. 5, 37, 107: sciscitando eo demum pervenit, ut haud procul esset, quin Remum agnosceret, Liv. 1, 5 fin.—

Att. 16, 3; and: undevicesimo aetatis anno dicere in foro coepi et nunc demum, quid praestare debeat orator, adhuc tamen per caliginem video, yet it is only now that I am at length beginning to see, Plin. Ep. 5, 8, 8 et saep.—
(b) In Plautus with following conjunctions, cum, quoniam, etc.: nunc demum a me insipienter factum esse arbitror, Cum rem cognosco, Plaut. Mil. 2, 6, 80; cf. id. Rud. 4, 4, 78.—
(g) Separated by pol, edepol, or other words: nunc pol demum ego sum liber, Plaut. Cas. 4, 4, 14: nunc edepol demum in memoriam regredior, cum cogito, etc., id. Capt. 5, 4; 25; id. Cas. 4, 4, 14; id. Aul. 1, 2, 1: heu, nunc misero mihi demum Exsilium infelix! Verg. A. 10, 849.—

dēmum,⁸ (anc. lat. demus Fest. 70, 8 ), adv., (superl. de de ), précisément, tout juste, seulement :
1 [joint aux pronoms]; sic sentio, id demum aut potius id solum esse miserum quod turpe sit Cic. Att. 8, 8, 1, à mon sentiment, est malheureux seulement, ou plutôt uniquement ce qui est honteux ; idem velle atque idem nolle, ea demum firma amicitia est Sall. C. 2, 4, vouloir les mêmes choses, repousser les mêmes choses, c’est cela seulement qui constitue l’amitié solide, cf. C. 2, 9 ; Plin. Min. Ep. 1, 20, 18 ; Virg. En. 1, 629, etc.
