First of all thank you for your attention.
My doubt comes from my English test, so here it goes:
We were asked to rewrite the sentences without using the underlined words, any changes could be made, as long as the original meaning prevailed.
Take a look at one of the sentences we were supposed to rewrite:
"Your days are full of excitement while also relaxing and uncomplicated".
I wrote this: "Your days are full of exciting moments while also relaxingly uncomplicated".
The teacher said "relaxingly" doesn't exist, I must admit, I was in doubt when I wrote it, but I wanted to "test" if it really existed or not (it seems it doesn't), but checking never harms. What do you guys think? Doest it exist? If it exists, did I use it correctly?
I thought relaxing was an adjective and relaxingly an adverb.
Thanks
