Definitions

adv

In an emotional manner; displaying emotion.

"For a long time, I thought I'd never live to see this day," he said emotionally. "Thank you all for everything you did in my behalf."

Few concepts are as emotionally charged as that of race. The word conjures up a mixture of associations—culture, ethnicity, genetics, subjugation, exclusion and persecution. But is the tragic history of efforts to define groups of people by race really a matter of the misuse of science, the abuse of a valid biological concept?

Regarding emotions.

Physically, it was easy, but emotionally it was the hardest thing I've ever done.
