this is where count downwards to zero
it't the act of counting backwards to zero, particulary for the launch of a rocket
effectively you are counting back
the number counting down, nine eight seven ..that is the countdown
2)
to count down, I'm gonna count down from three two one

3)
you can use this also, metaphorically meaning the period of time leading up to an important event
I guess in a month or so, we will begin the countdown to Christmas
the time before something happens
we are now in the countdown to the party
the countdoown indicates the amount of time left technically before an event or an operation or something that happens
it is this period of increased activity before a deadline
I still haven't finished my essay and the deadline is tomorrow that this is really the final countdown
final countdown
