smoothly

I have found two definitions for smoothly in the dictionaries
- in an even way, without suddenly stopping and starting again
- without problems or difficulties (Oxford Learner's Dictionary)
When they say a machine or a computer works smoothly, it means it works without stopping or without difficulty?
  

Top answer

It means that it works without problem or difficulty, which includes "without stopping" since a computer stopping is obviously a problem or difficulty.
