efectivamente

/efeɡˌtibaˈmente/ · B2 · adv

indeed, quite right

✅ efectivamente = efectiva (effective) + mente (-ly): in effect, indeed

Built from efectivo (effective, real in result) plus the adverb ending -mente, like English -ly. Something that works in fact is true in fact, so it means effectively and also indeed, quite right, when you confirm a statement.
