totally
In every way
Totally means completely or entirely: I totally forgot about the meeting.
In casual speech, it serves as enthusiastic agreement or emphasis: Are you coming? —Totally!
This emphatic use, especially common among younger speakers, can intensify almost any statement: That's totally unfair.
The word sometimes carries a Valley Girl association, though it's thoroughly mainstream.
