in a luxurious or elaborate way
In a very full, strong, or luxurious way, with a lot of decoration, color, taste, or other quality.
Bruksmønster:
richly [past participle/adjective]
Vanlig feil:
Learners sometimes use "rich" instead of "richly" before a past participle, saying *"a rich decorated room" instead of "a richly decorated room." Remember to use the adverb "richly" to describe how something is decorated, colored, flavored, or detailed.

Bruksmønster:
richly [past participle/adjective]
Vanlig feil:
Learners sometimes think "richly" only talks about money. In this meaning, it does NOT mean someone got a lot of money; it means they got a lot of something or that it was fully deserved (for example, "richly deserved" or "richly rewarded"). Also, do not say *"very richly deserved"; usually "richly deserved" alone is strong enough.
Synonymer
amply (Very close in meaning; slightly more formal and less common in everyday speech.)
|
fully (Focuses on being complete or total, without the slight flavor of luxury that "richly" can have.)
|
thoroughly (Emphasizes completeness; not always interchangeable, but similar when describing how deserved something is.)
Antonymer
barely (Suggests only just enough, the opposite of having a lot or more than enough.)
|
scarcely (Means almost not at all, contrasting with the sense of plenty in "richly.")
