Often, some people come up against barriers when it comes to the correct spelling of certain phrases or words in the English language. This can be due to differences in pronunciation or spelling between similar words or phrases in their native language. A common spelling mistake is “truly” and “truely”. This article will provide an understanding of the correct use and spelling of the word.

The correct spelling of “truly”

“Truly” is an adverb used to modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. The mistake with “truly” may arise due to the English language. There is often an “e” added before the “-ly” suffix, which may lead to confusion.

Correct spelling

truly

Incorrect spelling

truely

Many misspell “truly” as “truely”. This might be attributed to the inconsistencies in English spelling, which can lead to this kind of error. When adding “-ly” to “true”, the “e” should be dropped.

Examples

  • I truly appreciate your help.
  • She was truly amazed by the view.
  • The story was truly inspiring.

FAQs

The correct spelling is “truly”, without an “e” before the “-ly”.

“Truly” is an adverb, commonly used to modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. In all these contexts, “truly” often imparts a sense of genuineness, sincerity, or intensity to the word or phrase it’s modifying.

The misspelling might arise from the inconsistencies in English spelling. Many words add “-ly” without dropping any letters, so people might mistakenly add “-ly” to “true” without dropping the “e”.
