Much is used as an adjective or adverb, but it always means a large quantity, extent, or degree. When something hurts very much, it's very painful, and when your friend says your gift is very much appreciated, she's emphasizing how happy it made her.

1. A large quantity or amount: Much has been written. 2. Something great or remarkable: The campus wasn't much to look at.
