If you mean that these words are used to describe how someone says something, then they could mean the following: Flatly - without emotion Dryly - using dry humour Darkly - with sinister overtones

hello Sorry I'm not sure what this means - someone say s may times. If it is from a book try making your own example for us to correct for you. I would suggest trying even one of these words in a sentence then we can correct them and give you ideas then :)
