It is most often used to emphasize a statement: "I absolutely loved the movie!"
but it can also be used to express strong agreement: "He's definitely going to get hurt." "Oh, absolutely."
or just as an adverb to mean completely/fully: "He trusted his friend absolutely"
if it's used with a negative, it means none whatsoever/not at all: "I had absolutely no idea what he would say next"

@TaehyungiexTata Can you explain the difference between “definitely” and “obviously” and “absolutely”?
I wanna listen to your own opinion.

Definitely, obviously and absolutely are different things.
For example, i could definitely use some help or yes definitely! Some synonyms are clearly and without a doubt (for emphasis)
Absolutely can be used to exaggerate a sentence.
“She loves that cat”
“She absolutely loves that cat”
Obviously can be used to state your opinion from what you see
“He obviously loves dogs”
“They obviously don’t have any money”
However it can be exaggerated too.
“I’m obviously going to win”
I won’t explain in full detail about each one. I hope it helped though!
