what's the difference between 'glum', 'gloomy', 'dreary', 'dismally'
I started to read "The Hobbit" and found out that there is many thing which I can't understand by myself and my dictionary))
so I have a couple of questions:
First thing I want to know is differences in the meaning between 'glum', 'gloomy', 'dreary', 'dismally' becouse for me, it's practicly all the same.
Аnd second, is only 'dismaly' an adverb?

glum = suddenly or silently gloomy
gloomy = dark or dim; causes gloom
dreary = something that causes sadness or gloom
dismally = causes gloom or dejection
"dreary," "dismally," and "gloomy" all mean the same thing. They cause "gloom." "Glum" describes something that has already become "gloomy". I believe all of those words are adjectives and none of them are adverbs.
