Hi all!

This sentence is probably wrong:

I have to act sensefully.

What to say instead?

Thanks in advance!

Do you mean "sensibly"?

Oh, I have found the right adverb.

I have to act reasonably.

Sensefully doesn't exist :)

Thanks

No, sensefully doesn't exist. Reasonably and sensibly are very similar but not identical. However, if you've found that reasonably fits your context perfectly, then great!
