In a very strong and very active way to reach a goal or get an advantage.

نمط الاستخدام: to [verb] aggressively
خطأ شائع:

assertively (Suggests confidence and firmness without sounding as negative or intense as "aggressively".) | forcefully (Focuses on strength of action; may sound less goal-focused than "aggressively".) | intensely (Highlights strong effort or feeling, but not always the pushy or competitive idea in "aggressively".)
الأضداد

نمط الاستخدام: to behave/speak/react aggressively toward [someone]
