with very strong emotion or belief

In a way that shows very strong feeling or belief about something.

用法パターン: to [verb] passionately about [something]
よくある間違い:
Learners sometimes confuse "passionately" with "patiently" or "politely" because they look similar. "Passionately" always involves strong emotion or feeling, not quiet or polite behavior. It can describe positive support ("passionately for") or strong opposition ("passionately against").

with strong romantic or sexual feeling

In a way that shows very strong love or sexual desire for someone.

用法パターン: to [verb] [someone] passionately
よくある間違い:
Learners sometimes use "passionately" in romantic or sexual contexts without realizing it can sound quite strong or intimate. In formal or professional situations, it is safer to use words like "deeply" or "strongly" for non-physical feelings (e.g., "deeply in love" rather than "passionately in love" in some contexts).
類義語
sexually (Focuses directly on sexual activity; more explicit and less emotional than "passionately".)
対義語
coldly (Suggests showing little or no warmth, love, or desire.) | distantly (Emphasizes emotional or physical distance, not closeness or desire.)
