gradually

adverb B2 Neutro

Significado

poco a poco, de manera gradual, progresivamente, lentamente

"Gradually" es un adverbio que se utiliza para describir un proceso que ocurre de forma lenta y constante, en lugar de suceder de repente. Se refiere a cambios o desarrollos que se producen paso a paso, permitiendo que las cosas evolucionen de manera natural y controlada. Por ejemplo, si alguien mejora en un deporte, puede hacerlo gradualmente a través de la práctica regular y el esfuerzo continuo.

💡 A common mistake is to confuse "gradually" with "gradual," which is an adjective; remember to use "gradually" to describe how something happens.
