Truely or Truly

Truly is an adverb that denotes "in a truthful way," "absolutely," or "properly," and it is the adverbial form of the adjective "true." Truely, on the other hand, is a misspelling of truly that should be avoided.

Examples of Truely and truly in a sentence

• I truly believe that honesty is the best policy.
• The scenery was truly breathtaking.

Note:

The common way to form an adverb is by adding the suffix “-ly” to an adjective. However, there are some exceptions where adverbs ending with “e” do not drop the “e,” such as “nicely.” On the other hand, adjectives like “true” do not follow this rule and simply add “-ly” to form the adverb.

Truly is an adverb

The word "truly" is an adverb that is derived from the adjective "true." It is typically used to indicate the manner in which something is done, such as "in a truthful way," "absolutely," or "properly." It can modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs, and it can even be used as a sentence adverb to modify the entire sentence.
