What part of speech is the word necessarily?

The word "necessarily" is an adverb.

Here's why:

* It modifies a verb: It tells us how or to what extent something is done. For example, "You don't *necessarily* need to be a professional chef to make a great meal."

* It can modify an adjective or another adverb: "It's *necessarily* a difficult task" (modifying the adjective "difficult").

* It can be used to indicate a logical consequence: "If you're going to the party, you *necessarily* need to be home by midnight."
