It practically means you'd practically know what it meant if you'd practically take a look at a dictionary now and then, if that's not practical enough for you then maybe you should practically not ask the question, but ask it just enough so that someone guesses that you are not just practically asking the question but fully asking it one hundred percent since that would be the most practical thing you could do at this juncture.

Answer 3

practical means that an object, action, or an idea is suitable for a purpose. usually, we think of things that can be easily used in day to day life as "practical."

for example....

it is impractical to buy a car if you can't even pay your rent.
