用法模式：
[Importantly], [clause]
常见错误：
Learners sometimes use *important* instead of *importantly* at the start of a sentence (e.g. *Important, we must leave now*). The correct form as a sentence adverb is *Importantly, we must leave now.* Learners also mix *more important* and *more importantly*; in modern English, *More importantly, ...* is more common when introducing a new key point in speech or writing.

用法模式：
[something] is importantly [adjective/changed]
常见错误：
Learners may avoid this sense and use *very* or *a lot* instead, which can sound less formal (e.g. *The results are very different* instead of *importantly different*). Also, some may confuse *important* and *importantly* and write *The results are important different*, which is incorrect; it should be *importantly different* or *very different*.
近义词
significantly (More common in everyday and academic English; *importantly* can sound slightly more formal or stylistic.)
反义词
insignificantly (Stresses that the effect or difference is so small that it hardly matters.)
