genuinely JUST WRITTEN FOR YOU

/ˈdʒɛnjʊəli/ · gen·u·i·ne·ly
adverb
  1. In a genuine manner; truthfully, truly. I thought they were joking at first, but it seemed they were genuinely interested in the talk about glaciers.
Did you know? The adverb genuinely first appeared in English texts around the early 1600s, shortly after the adjective genuine entered the language from Latin.
