Hi English teachers,
my niece has wanted me to guess a word and I guess the word is "deeply", is it correct?
Perseverance is staying on to do somethings right despite difficulties, d????y in success or when others give up.
@Loh Jane,
I can't make 'deeply' work in that sentence. Does it have to be d- - --y in form?
@roger,
Yes,so tough. I can't find any suitable word.
@Loh Jane,
My first guess is "devotedly," but it doesn't seem perfect. "deeply" wouldn't work.
Edit: doggedly? diligently?
@FBM,
Too many letters, must be 6 letters.
@Loh Jane,
Oh! Eh...direly. Still not quite right...
@Loh Jane,
I'm not all that happy with this choice but it fits...thought it's a bit poetic:
deftly
