| Morphological Notes | Adverb (Gr,D); indeclinable adverbial form modifying a verb, expressing manner. |
| Rendering Rationale | The adverb βαρέως derives from βαρύς ("heavy, weighty") with the adverbial suffix -ως, meaning "in a heavy manner." "Heavily" preserves the root sense of weight or burden while functioning properly as an adverb. |
