What does Luckily really mean?

Luckily is a word we use to describe when something good or positive happens by chance or by luck. It's like when you're playing a game and you win without really trying, or when you find money on the ground when you're not expecting it. It's a feeling of being fortunate or happy about something unexpected that happens in your favor.

Imagine you're walking home from school and you drop your favorite pencil. You feel sad because you think you've lost it forever. But then, when you start looking around, you see that the pencil fell right next to a patch of beautiful flowers. You feel happy and think to yourself, "Luckily, I dropped my pencil here because now I get to see these pretty flowers!" It's like having a little surprise or gift from life.

Another way to think about it is like when you're playing a board game with your friends. You roll the dice and hope to get a high number so you can move your game piece closer to the finish line. If you get a high number and you're able to move ahead, you might say, "Luckily, I rolled a six and now I'm closer to winning the game!" It's like a little extra boost or advantage that helps you out.

So, in short, when we say "luckily," we mean that something good happens unexpectedly or by chance. It's a positive feeling that comes from getting a little bit of luck on your side.
