How do I use them? 'in full' I finished my work in full. 'in vain' My effort was in vain. 'at large' you can use them at large.

The first two are good. You might also say pay the bill in full or receive payment in full. I tried to stop her leaving in vain At large can be used as a criminal who has not been caught: The murderer is still at large or to describe someone (usually in media) with a free role. You often have an editor at large

I agree with the answers Jazz gave. But "at large" can also have another meaning of "without a specific assignment." For example: "He was the correspondent-at-large for his newspaper," meaning that he could report on anything and was not limited to a specific area of reporting, such as sports or politics.

You have 'in full' and 'in vain' used correctly. "In vain" Example: "I have tried and tried to fix this relationship, but alas it has all been in vain." "In full" Example: "I am going to need that payment in full." I would use "at large" like someone is on the run and hasn't been captured or still out there so to speak. Example: "Bonnie and Clyde are still at large." or "The woman is recovering from the attack, but the criminal is still at large."
