Word Usage – Confusion Using the Word ‘Transgendered’: Proper Usage Guide

I must dissent from Maulik V's statement that an ordinary person is one who does not have a quality that you “expect”. On the contrary, an ordinary person has exactly the qualities you expect in everyone, no more, no less.

In any case, ordinary has (ordinarily) no offensive connotation, unless you are specifically denying someone some excellence he has claimed to possess—and in that case the offense lies in the denial, not in the term ordinary.

First, let me answer your numerous questions:

1. What sense do I understand from your comment? That the questions were answered properly.
2. Was your answer appropriate? Yes, the answer was.
3. Did the answer sound natural? Yes; you sounded more formal which tends to color a response as more respectful than if it had been informal.

Duly is not used very much in informal (colloquial) speech and writing. As such, its formal tone shades the sentence. Is this wrong? Not at all. Using a formal tone is common in several languages when a person wishes to express an additional degree of respect and politeness. To give an example, the colloquial "May I please take your daughter to the dance?" versus the quite formal "May I please have the privilege and honor of escorting your daughter to the dance?"

So, to once again revisit your question and give you a comprehensive answer: Yes your comment was correct, and it sounded respectful. And to answer the implied question of how to avoid "sounding bossy" I suggest you do a bit of research on Imperative (grammatical) Mood. A good understanding of it will allow you to avoid "sounding bossy" unless you choose to.
