intentionally

An intention is a plan or purpose that someone has in mind when they do something. It means they are acting with a specific goal or aim.

When people use the word "intentionally" they usually mean that someone did something on purpose, as part of their plan or goal. For example, if you intentionally left your keys at home, it means you meant to leave them there and not forget them somewhere else. It's like saying "I planned to leave my keys here." People often use this word in situations where they want to make it clear that something wasn't an accident or a mistake, but rather a deliberate choice.

It can also be used with verbs like try, fail, or succeed. For example: "She intentionally tried to solve the problem" means she made a conscious effort to do so.
