1 : a proclamation having the force of law. 2 : order, command we held firm to Grandmother’s edict— M. F. K. Fisher.
Is the T silent in exactly?
When we have the word ‘exact’, we will make a True T because it’s part of an ending consonant cluster. But when we add the -ly ending, it now comes between two consonants. You’ll hear a lot of native speakers say ‘exactly‘, with no T sound.
