Μοτίβο χρήσης:
enormously [adjective/adverb]
Συχνό λάθος:
Learners sometimes confuse 'enormously' (adverb) with 'enormous' (adjective). Use 'enormously' before adjectives or other adverbs (e.g., 'enormously difficult', 'enormously fast'), and 'enormous' before nouns (e.g., 'an enormous house'). Another mistake is putting it in an unnatural position, such as *'He enormously is happy.' It should come before the adjective: 'He is enormously happy.'
Συνώνυμα
extremely (Most common neutral adverb of high degree; slightly more general than 'enormously'.)

hugely (Very similar meaning; often a bit more informal or emotional.)
|
tremendously (Adds a sense of being very impressive or powerful, not just large in degree.)
Αντώνυμα
slightly (Indicates only a small amount or degree, the opposite of 'very great degree'.)
|
barely (Shows the smallest possible degree, almost not at all.)
