What is comparative form of cheerfully?

There isn't a comparative form of "cheerfully" in the traditional sense.

"Cheerfully" is an adverb, describing how something is done. Adverbs don't typically have comparative forms like adjectives do (e.g., "big" -> "bigger").

Instead of using a comparative form of "cheerfully," you can use:

* More cheerfully (This emphasizes a higher degree of cheerfulness)

* With more cheer (This emphasizes the feeling of cheerfulness)

* More brightly (If you want to emphasize the outward expression of cheerfulness)

* More enthusiastically (If you want to emphasize the energy of cheerfulness)

For example:

* Original: She greeted him cheerfully.

* Using "more cheerfully": She greeted him more cheerfully than usual.

* Using "with more cheer": She greeted him with more cheer than usual.

The best choice will depend on the specific context and what you want to emphasize.
