How to use "Steeply" in context?
When we describe something as "steeply", we mean that the rise is very fast and there is a lot of it.
For example, if you take a staircase, the climb up is gradual, but the climb down is steep. In the same way, a rise in a business's value can be gradual at first, but then quickly gains momentum (becomes steeply rising), before reaching a peak and then gradually waning.
This is why, when we make decisions, it's important to think about the speed of the rise and the potential impact of the fall.
