Best Answer

The word generously is an adverb. It can mean benevolently (a benefactor gave his money generously) or amply, abundantly, or profusely (a dish generously garnished with fruit).

Most words ending in -ly are adverbs, and adding -ly to an adjective form may be used to allow it to modify a verb, adjective, or another adverb.

Example:

She was a generous person. (The adjective modifies the noun person.)

She generously donated money to the charity. (The adverb modifies the verb donated.)
