关于Correctly的意思和用法的提问

A: Correctly is an adverb, whereas right can be an adjective or an adverb or even a noun in the case of the direction. Correct is also narrower in terms of meaning- it refers to literal truth/correctness, whereas right can refer to moral goodness as well.

A: I would say the difference is that 'rightly' seems more like an opinion. 'Correctly' sounds more like it's fact.

A: Another useful tip:
You can use properly for something you should already know or recently learned how to do and sometimes in a way that seems educated or high class.

"I can walk properly." = just learned (young kids); should know (adults)
"He can speak properly." = recently learned (for young kids); educated (for adults)
"She can dress properly." = recently learned to do by himself/herself (for young kids); high class (for adults)

Correctly just means "in the correct way" and has no double meanings.

A: Properly the 't' should be pronounced, but I will admit native speakers often skip it when speaking quickly. I gave slow and fast examples.

A: Well, It is "why did you go there.".
