difícilmente
/diˌfiθilˈmente/ · B2 · adv
scarcely, hardly
😓🧗 difícil + mente = with a difficult mind, so hardly, with difficulty
Difícil means difficult, and the suffix -mente works like English -ly. So difícilmente is literally difficultly: done with difficulty, and so scarcely or hardly likely. Note the accent on í stays from difícil.
