Notas de uso
- Often intensifies adjectives or adverbs: terribilmente difficile, terribilmente bene. In speech, molto is usually more neutral and common.
- Can sound dramatic or literary in positive contexts like terribilmente interessante; not always the best choice for everyday conversation.
- Do not confuse with terribly in English politeness formulas. Italian terribilmente is mainly an intensifier, not a softener.
