to [verb] powerfully
よくある間違い：
Learners sometimes say *"He speaks powerful"* instead of *"He speaks powerfully"*. Use *powerful* before a noun (e.g., *a powerful speech*) and *powerfully* to describe how an action is done (e.g., *to speak powerfully*).
類義語

対義語

用法パターン：
powerfully [adjective]

Learners may overuse *very* and avoid *powerfully*. Use *powerfully* when the idea of strength or strong effect fits the adjective, especially with feelings, images, or bodies (e.g., *powerfully built*, *powerfully moving*), not with every adjective.

extremely (A very close general equivalent; slightly more common and neutral as a degree adverb.)

対義語
slightly (Shows that a quality is present only a little, the opposite of being present to a very great degree.)
|
mildly (Suggests a soft or weak degree of a quality, contrasting with the strong emphasis of *powerfully*.)
