举例5 （书中P119）
例句： The reactions at the anode and cathode are facilitated by a catalyst,
typically platinum。
别人的译文：阳极和阴极的反应利用催化剂，典型地用铂来加速。
作者的改译：阳极和阴极的反应利用催化剂来加速，常用的催化剂是铂。
本人评论：
typically副词肯定是修饰动词，原文typically platinum是省略用法，完整说法是typically facilitated by platinum。
楼主：typically是副词，这没错。但它不是修饰动词facilitated，而是修饰platinum。
给你另一个例句：
protect against fatal disease, notably diabetes.
这里的notably用法同typically。它是修饰diabetes，而不是修饰protect。

请问：The present invention relates to an end milling cutter with a front wavelike cutting edge made of hard alloy, particularly to a spiral end milling cutter来自何处？

a spiral end milling cutter与前面的an end milling cutter 并列，或者说进一步细述an end milling cutter 。意思就是“特别是与a spiral end milling cutter 有关”或者“特别是涉及a spiral end milling cutter”。权当relates to的意思是“与...有关”或“涉及”。
应该是See id. at 388-389吧？见同书，页388至389。拉丁语说"Amicus est alter idem."（朋友是第二个自己。）其实，idem在不同的语境里所指的对象不同，不一定是“同”的意思，例如"Stulti iidem miseri sunt."（蠢人“也”可怜。）或"Multi, qui vulnera fortiter acceperunt, iidem dolorem morbis ferre non possunt"（许多勇敢承受伤势的人，“却”无法忍受生病的痛苦。）

Notes to answerer
Asker: 按照英文语法，副词是不可能修饰名词的。notably diabetes就是notably protect against diabetes的省略，省略谓语。
Asker: 新东方老师个人总结的语法不够权威。
The present invention relates to an end milling cutter with a front wavelike cutting edge made of hard alloy, particularly to a spiral end milling cutter ...
后面的particularly to你又如何解释。
Asker: 由particularly后面的to，就应该知道句子中省略了什么成分。有时候这个to也被省略了。
这种句子在专利文献中很多。
google “the present invention relates to" and "particularly to", 会找到很多类似例句。
