Etymology
The word 'abominably' originates from the Middle English 'abomynable' which came from the Old French 'abominable'. It has been used in English since the 14th century. The term 'abominable' has roots in Latin 'abominari', meaning 'to deprecate, to detest as an ill omen', and ultimately from 'ab-' (away from) + 'omen' (foreboding). Over time, the adverb 'abominably' has evolved to convey a sense of extreme disgust or disdain.
