Rfv-sense: In a tremendous manner. The other (new) sense is more like "to a tremendous degree". DCDuring TALK 16:29, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
 * This was done by new-adverb template ("in a ___ manner"), fwiw. &#x200b;— msh210 ℠ 18:51, 23 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Well, I didn't get the e-mail until now. (Thanks) I assume (hope, actually) that its use has run its course except for adverbs derived from new adjectives. OTOH, there are plenty where there has been hand attention and the problem remains. I think English adverbs are pretty far down on most folk's priorities. Also many adverbs don't even get their own entries in dictionaries, so there is a lack of good models for definitions. And the dismissal of adverbs as a residual class in some grammar and language books is no help. Not to mention that many English writing guides suggest that their use is somehow reprehensible.

 * Oh. That new-adverb. I don't know if it's worth changing, though it doesn't use en-adv either and most de-adjectival -ly adverbs presumptively have comparatives. I may just keep a watch on new additions to the category, which are not abundant.
