successfully

Usage Note

Felicemente derives from felice ('happy') and can mean both 'in a happy manner' and 'successfully, favorably' — il progetto si è concluso felicemente ('the project ended successfully'). The second sense is common in formal writing and should not be confused with the purely emotional sense of con gioia.

Examples

"Vivono felicemente insieme da anni."
