I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'funnily enough ms thurman came back one by one' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'thurman came back one by one' is the wordplay.
'thurman' becomes 'uma' (I've seen this in another clue).
'came back' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'one by one' becomes 'singly' (synonyms).
'uma' reversed gives 'amu'.
'amu'+'singly'='AMUSINGLY'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for amusingly that I've seen is " in a funny sort of way".)
