Easily

This is from Lexin Swedish-English dictionary (http://lexin.nada.kth.se/cgi-bin/swe-eng): Elden slocknar gärna när veden är sur "a fire goes out easily if the wood is wet". That is a context gärna could mean easily, as such I'm removing the verification tag. Kettler 14:28, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Rfv-sense of the sense "easily" - I can't think of any context where it would fit, but... \Mike 19:21, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

This is from Lexin Swedish-English dictionary (http://lexin.nada.kth.se/cgi-bin/swe-eng): Elden slocknar gärna när veden är sur "a fire goes out easily if the wood is wet". Though, this sense doesn't seem so distant from "willingly". Kettler 14:33, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Mmkay, but "easily" is a vastly broader term where most of the subsenses do not correspond to this word. \Mike 16:01, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Kept, since \Mike's concern seems to have been addressed (he improved the definition, added an example sentence, and removed the RFV tag). Anyone wishing to re-RFV this should feel free. (I rather suspect that DCDuring wishes to, since he restored the tag when \Mike removed it; but if so, I'm going to force him to say so explicitly, 'coz I'm mean like that. ;-) —Ruakh_TALK 16:50, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
