Wie kann ich "very walk" übersetzen?

[Nia]

Ich lese gerade ein englisches Buch und bin über folgenden Satz gestolpert:

Once, the sound of this man's very walk caused all our movement to stop.

Was bedeutet das "very"?

besonders/jetziger

OK, danke.

I'm not sure that's exactly right. "His very walk" means "only his walk, and nothing more" - the implication is that the man is so intimidating or alarming that a normally unremarkable action is sufficient to create fear and unease.

@Peter F.: I think you're right. Thanks.
