How a card-sharp's cards differ from others? (8)
I believe the answer is:
markedly
'how' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adverbs. Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for markedly that I've seen before include "In a clearly noticeable manner" , "Prominently, distinctly" .)
