numerously

Numerously is an adverb that means in large numbers or quantities. It is used to describe something that occurs repeatedly or exists in a great multitude. For example, one might say that opportunities arose numerously, or that errors were made numerously. The word is derived from the adjective numerous, which means very many. While "numerously" is a legitimate word, it is not as commonly used as other adverbs with similar meanings, such as "frequently," "abundantly," or "manifold." Its usage can sometimes feel slightly formal or archaic. When considering whether to use "numerously," it is often beneficial to explore alternative phrasing that might be more direct or natural-sounding in a given context. For instance, instead of saying "problems appeared numerously," one could say "many problems appeared" or "problems appeared in great numbers." The choice between "numerously" and its alternatives depends on the desired tone and the specific emphasis being placed on the quantity or frequency of something.
