very; to a great extent

Very; to a very great degree, often used before a positive adjective.

Vzorec užití: eminently [adjective/past participle]
Častá chyba:
Learners often confuse "eminently" with "imminently." "Eminently" means "very" (eminently qualified = very qualified), while "imminently" means "very soon" (a storm is imminent = a storm will happen soon). Another mistake is to use "eminently" before negative adjectives where a neutral adverb is more natural; while phrases like "eminently forgettable" exist, in most cases "very" or "extremely" is safer and more common.
Synonyma
highly (Very close in meaning; slightly more common and less formal than "eminently.") | extremely (Stronger and more emotional; "eminently" often sounds more measured and formal.) | remarkably (Emphasizes that something is surprising or unusual; "eminently" focuses on degree and suitability.)
Antonyma
slightly (Shows a small degree, which contrasts with the strong degree expressed by "eminently.") | barely (Suggests almost not at all, the opposite of the strong emphasis in "eminently.")
