Virtually is the adverb form of the adjective virtual, which is most generally used to describe something as being the same as something else in almost every way, except perhaps in name or some other minor, technical sense.
What's the difference between virtual and virtually?
Most generally, virtual is used to describe things as almost identical to but not exactly something else. The adverb virtually is perhaps most commonly used to describe things in this way. The more specific use of virtual often involves computer simulations, as in virtual reality and virtual rendering.
Does virtual mean actual?
