Etymology
The word 'authentically' is derived from the adjective 'authentic', which comes from the Latin word 'authenticus' meaning 'genuine, principal'. The Latin root itself is derived from the Greek word 'authentikos', which translates to 'original, principal'. The use of 'authentic' emerged in Middle English around the late 14th century, and it has been used to describe things that are true and not false. Over time, the adverb form 'authentically' evolved as a way to describe actions or expressions done in an authentic manner, reflecting sincerity and originality.
