In a very friendly and kind way that shows you like or care about someone.
Bruksmønster:
to [verb] [someone] warmly
Vanlig feil:
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."
Synonymer
cordially (More formal and polite; often used in written invitations or official communication rather than everyday speech.)
Antonymer
coldly (Describes behavior that is unfriendly and shows no warmth or affection.)

with strong approval or enthusiasm
In a way that shows you strongly agree with or support something.
Bruksmønster:
to [verb] [something] warmly
Vanlig feil:
Learners may overuse "very" with "warmly" (e.g., "very warmly recommend"). In many cases, "warmly" already expresses a strong feeling, so "warmly recommend" is usually enough.
Synonymer
enthusiastically (Stresses excitement and energy; "warmly" can sound slightly softer and more emotional.)
Antonymer
coolly (Shows little or no enthusiasm or approval, often emotionally distant.)
