Mostly finished vs. almost finished

[abc]

Hi teachers

Is there any difference between

Mostly finish and almost finish?

Thanks in advance

Hi abc

This is my personal opinion:

If I say "The work is almost finished", that means a little bit of the work is not finished, but it also indicates that the work will probably be completely finished at some point in time (possibly soon).

If I say "The work is mostly finished", that also means a little bit of the work is not finished. But, in this sentence, the possibility that the work will never be completely finished is greater.

Does that answer your question?
