Subject: English ~ Temporally or Temporarily?
I always have a problem with these 2 words, Temporally or Temporarily.
Sentence 1 → I have 2 appointments; they were arranged temporally.
Sentence 2 → I have 2 appointments; they were arranged temporarily.
Both are correct, but they have different meanings.
Sentence 1
→ 'temporally' means 'not-simultaneous'
→ or 'at different times'...
→ or the 2 appointments are 'temporal'.
Sentence 2
→ 'temporarily' means 'not-permanent'
→ or 'subjected to changes'...
→ or the 2 appointments are 'temporary'.
