What does "newly" mean?
Please explain that word for me. Does it mean:
1. It's 10:00 a.m now and I finished my homework at 9:55 a.m. So can I say "I newly finished my homework"?
2. It's 10:00 am now and I finished my homework yesterday. So can I say "I newly finished my homework"?
Which sentence is correct?

1. "I just finished my homework"
2 "I just finished my homework yesterday"
We just bought a newly painted house/second hand car
Newly= Recently(not in the immediate past, we use 'just' for this)

Neither sentence is correct. Newly refers to something new. As Kevin has said it refers to something done recently. Like a couple that recently got married we could say they are newly married or newly weds.

You have just finished your Homework that's why you have to say.
1. I have finished my homework.
2. I have finished my new homework.
3. I finished my job.
4. I have just finished my new homework.
May be these sentence will help you to understand. Thank you;)
