Also means
exactly
Usage Note
Precisamente is used both to mean 'exactly' (pinpointing something) and as a conversational response agreeing with or confirming what was just said — similar to 'precisely!' or 'exactly!' in English. It is more emphatic than exactamente in some contexts and common in both Spain and Latin America. When two -mente adverbs appear together, only the final one keeps the suffix: clara y precisamente.
Examples
"Llegó precisamente a las nueve."
Natural Translation
He arrived at exactly nine o'clock.
Literal Translation
Arrived exactly at the nine
