what's heartily?
Sentence: Well done, Hermione, said Harry heartily.
Heartily is a totally new word for me, so I touched and hold on it for the definition to appear and it read "adv, in a hearty manner".
If the dictionary expected me to know what the "hearty manner" was, why would I have googled the adverb "heartily"??
how would you describe heartily?

Heartily means wholeheartedly and happy. For example you can have a hearty meal which means a meal that is warming and makes you "hearty", joyful, happy, in a genuine way.
Hope this helps

The dictionary probably expected you to look up "hearty" if you didn't understand what it meant. Here is one definition: https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/hearty

It means you do something with your whole heart and effort. Examples could be
Eat heartily ... you eat a lot
Laugh heartily ... a big powerful laugh

I think of heartily - as with great emphasis or big heart in this context.
