Common Errors In English Usage Dictionary

Second & second of all

“First of all” makes sense

when you want to emphasize the primacy of the first item in a series,

but it should not be followed by “second of all,”

where the expression serves no such function.

And “secondly” is an adverbial form

that makes no sense at all in enumeration(neither does “firstly”).

As you go through your list,

say simply “second,” “third,” “fourth,” etc.
