extremely, in a very good way
Used to say that something is very, very good or nice.
Patrón de uso:
[something] is wonderfully [adjective]
Error frecuente:
Learners sometimes use *wonderfully* before a noun (e.g., *a wonderfully weather*), but it should usually come before an adjective or another adverb (e.g., *wonderfully warm weather*, *sings wonderfully well*). Another mistake is using *wonderful* instead of *wonderfully* before verbs (e.g., *She sings wonderful* instead of *She sings wonderfully*).

Error frecuente:
Learners sometimes confuse *wonderful* and *wonderfully* and say *She sings wonderful* instead of *She sings wonderfully*. Another confusion is using *wonderfully* for negative actions, where it sounds odd (e.g., *He failed wonderfully* is usually wrong except as a joke).

|
impressively (Highlights that something creates respect or admiration, sometimes more formal.)
|
remarkably (Emphasizes that something is unusual or stands out, not always emotionally warm.)
