i want to say that a teacher needs to invest time and emotions in his/her job.
and i want to say it like that:
to be so much emotionally (and timely?) invested
maybe there is a better word synonym to time here, but i want to keep this way of saying and not change the whole structure of the sentence. how can i say that?
thank you
how should i say:time as adjective

Re: how should i say:time as adjective
There is no adverbial form of the noun 'time'.
There is, however, an adjective 'timely', as in 'timely intervention'.
