How do you say formally in French?

There are several ways to say "formally" in French, depending on the context:

General use:

* Formellement: This is the most direct translation and works in most situations.

* De manière formelle: This translates to "in a formal manner" and is a bit more descriptive.

Specific contexts:

* Officiellement: This means "officially" and is used when referring to something done according to established rules or procedures.

* Solennellement: This translates to "solemnly" and is used for events or occasions that are very serious and dignified.

* Rigoureusement: This means "rigorously" and is used when describing something done with strict adherence to rules or standards.

Examples:

* Il faut s'habiller formellement pour le gala. (You must dress formally for the gala.)

* Le procès-verbal a été rédigé de manière formelle. (The minutes were written in a formal manner.)

* L'accord a été signé officiellement. (The agreement was signed officially.)

The best choice for you will depend on the specific context of what you are trying to say.
