Typically means in the way that usually happens. Typically takes an hour, typically found in, typically British.
Before a figure it is a hedge meaning on average and in the usual case: typically about four hours. Before an adjective of nationality or character it means characteristically — typically British, typically him — and in that use it is often affectionately exasperated. Note typical; and that typically claims what is usual, where usually claims frequency, which is a fine distinction few observe.
