Examples of posthumously in a Sentence
A posthumously, everyone loves us. (A titre posthume, - Tout le monde nous aime)
Friedrich Nietzsche, The Antichrist:
Some men are born posthumously.
That was something we were going to do well before the nominations came out -- we talked about that in January. It's our belief -- that I think is not unfounded -- that actors' speeches tend to be more dramatic than producers' speeches. And so we thought it might be fun to mix it up, especially if people didn't know that was coming, so that was always part of the plan. And then when the nominations came out and there was even the possibility that Chadwick could win posthumously, our feeling was if he were to win and his widow were to speak on his behalf, there would be nowhere to go after that. So we stuck with it.
Posthumously, everyone loves us. (A titre posthume, - Tout le monde nous aime.)
Elizabeth WarrenElizabeth Warren:
We're forgotten and so I loved to see how Dad has encouraged us to come together and we're checking off a dream, posthumously, we're checking off a dream of his.
