Sympathetically is an adverb. Adverbs describe verbs (he walked quickly), adjectives (He drove a very fast car) or other adverbs (she sang quite loudly). Quickly, fast, quite and loudly are all adverbs. Many adverbs in English are formed by adding -ly to adjectives, eg quick/quickly, beautiful/beautifully.

Example sentence: She sympathetically asked how I was since my mother's death.

Sympathetic is an adjective, sympathy is a noun and sympathise is a verb
