Частая ошибка:
Learners sometimes confuse "sternly" with "seriously". "Seriously" can mean "in an honest or important way" (e.g., "I seriously like this song"), while "sternly" always includes a sense of strictness or disapproval, usually in someone’s tone, words, or expression. Learners also sometimes write "very stern" instead of "sternly" with verbs; use "sternly" with actions ("she spoke sternly"), and "stern" as an adjective with nouns ("a stern teacher").
