Common mistake:
Learners sometimes confuse "abundantly" (adverb) with "abundant" (adjective). Use "abundant" before a noun (e.g., "abundant rain") and "abundantly" to describe a verb or adjective (e.g., "rain fell abundantly"). Another mistake is using it where "a lot" is more natural in speech; "abundantly" sounds slightly more formal or written.
Meaning
