Usage Note
Physiquement modifies an adjective or verb to indicate something is true in a physical or bodily sense, as opposed to mentally or emotionally. It contrasts with mentalement ('mentally') or moralement ('morally'). Physiquement impossible means 'physically impossible', not just very difficult.
Examples
