英语词汇thusly的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

词汇	thusly
词源	thusly adv. 1865 (in an Artemus Ward dialect humor piece), from thus + -ly (2). A double adverb. Perhaps originally a humorous or mocking over-correction of thus; it has gained some currency but earns frowns for the user. Entries linking to thusly thus adv. Old English þus "in this way, as follows," related to þæt "that" and this; from Proto-Germanic thus- (source also of Old Saxon and Old Frisian thus, Middle Dutch and Dutch dus), from PIE to-. -ly 2 common adverbial suffix, forming from adjectives adverbs signifying "in a manner denoted by" the adjective, Middle English, from Old English -lice, from Proto-Germanic *-liko- (cognates: Old Frisian -like, Old Saxon -liko, Dutch -lijk, Old High German -licho, German -lich, Old Norse -liga, Gothic -leiko); see -ly (1). Cognate with lich, and identical with like (adj.). Weekley notes as "curious" that Germanic uses a word essentially meaning "body" for the adverbial formation, while Romanic uses one meaning "mind" (as in French constamment from Latin constanti mente). The modern English form emerged in late Middle English, probably from influence of Old Norse -liga. updated on February 09, 2014
