Usage Note
Excelentemente is the adverb from excelente (excellent). Like other long -mente adverbs, it is often replaced in speech by de forma excelente or simply muy bien. It is strictly positive; Spanish does not use it ironically in the way English sometimes employs 'excellently'.
Examples
"El cantante actuó excelentemente."
Natural Translation
The singer performed excellently.
