Schemat użycia:
to adversely affect [something]
Częsty błąd:
Learners sometimes confuse "adversely" with the adjective "adverse" or the adjective "averse." Use "adversely" to describe HOW something happens (an adverb: "adversely affect"), and use "adverse" before a noun ("adverse effects"). "Averse" means "strongly disliking" ("She is averse to change"). Learners also sometimes write *"very adversely" in casual speech where "very badly" or "very negatively" might sound more natural.
