extremely; to a great extent
very much; extremely, often in a strong or serious way
استعمال کا انداز:
profoundly [adjective]; profoundly [affect/change/shape] [someone/something]
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use *very profoundly* (e.g., *very profoundly sad*). This sounds redundant because 'profoundly' already means 'very' or 'extremely'. It is more natural to say 'profoundly sad' or just 'very sad'. Learners also sometimes use 'profoundly' with everyday light adjectives (e.g., *profoundly nice*), which sounds strange; it is usually used with serious or strong words like 'sorry', 'grateful', 'deaf', 'affected', 'changed'.

in a deeply thoughtful way
in a very serious and thoughtful way, showing deep understanding or strong feeling
استعمال کا انداز:
profoundly [verb] about [something]; speak/think/reflect profoundly
عام غلطی:
Learners may confuse this sense with the simple meaning of 'very'. If you can replace 'profoundly' with just 'very' without losing the idea of deep thought or serious meaning, the first sense might be better. Use this sense when you want to emphasize depth of understanding or feeling, not just high degree.

|
seriously (Emphasizes lack of joking rather than depth of understanding.)
|
philosophically (Suggests thinking in an abstract or philosophical way, not always as emotionally serious as 'profoundly'.)
متضاد الفاظ
superficially (Describes thought or understanding that only touches the surface of an idea.)
|
shallowly (Suggests weak, simple, or not serious thought or feeling.)
