in a way based on instinct
In a way that comes from natural feeling, not from thinking or planning.
用法模式：
[someone] instinctively [verb]
常见错误：
Learners sometimes confuse "instinctively" with "intuitively". "Instinctively" is usually about physical or emotional reactions that happen without thinking (for example, pulling your hand away from fire), while "intuitively" is more about understanding or knowing something without clear proof. Learners also sometimes place it incorrectly in a sentence; it usually comes before the main verb ("instinctively knew") or between an auxiliary and a main verb ("had instinctively moved").
