in a friendly, affectionate way

In a very friendly and kind way that shows you like or care about someone.

Käyttömalli: to [verb] [someone] warmly
Tyypillinen virhe:
Learners sometimes confuse "warmly" with "warm" when talking about personality. Use "She is warm" for personality and "She smiled warmly" for how she acts. Another mistake is using "warmly" where temperature is meant alone, as in "The room is warmly"; in this case, say "The room is warm."
Synonyymit
cordially (More formal and polite; often used in written invitations or official communication rather than everyday speech.)
Antonyymit
coldly (Describes behavior that is unfriendly and shows no warmth or affection.)

In a way that shows you strongly agree with or support something.

Käyttömalli: to [verb] [something] warmly

Synonyymit
enthusiastically (Stresses excitement and energy; "warmly" can sound slightly softer and more emotional.)
Antonyymit
