Nochmal der gleiche Text, aber ein anderer Begriff. Was ist mit "Innig" gemeint?

"Akzente im veränderten ersten Teil zu U2 Songs setzen Canternas überraschender Auftritt in Spitzenschuhen, der kurz angerissene klassische Pas de Deux mit ihrem Mann Rasta und dessen Innig, aber in viruosen Kapriolen getnazter Treueschwur "Faithfully".

Thanks, Edith No problem. I'm sure Ellen knew the answer without my prompting.
Edith Kelly Aug 3, 2009:
Volkmar You should still post as an answer although s.o. else gave the same answer 4 min later than you posted this discussion entry.
LegalTrans D Aug 3, 2009:
innig = something like "heartfelt" and should not have been capitalized--it is an adjective: "innig getanzter Treueschwur"

neutral Edith Kelly : Volkmar gave that answer already, he should post it and he gets my agree.

why this senseless hostility ?
neutral Armorel Young : except that innig here is an adverb, modifying "getanzt" - if it were an adjective it would have to have an adjectival ending

my statement according to which "innig" is an adjective, is correct. To add that in the present case it is used as an adverb definitely would sound ridiculous; after all we are no fledglings who need grammar lessons.
disagree Cilian O'Tuama : but maybe we are (fledglings): innig is qualifying an adjective, so it's an adverb
