Word origin
The adverb 'badly' is derived from the adjective 'bad,' which originated from Old English 'bรฆd' meaning 'effeminate, cowardly, worthless.' Over time, the meaning evolved to signify something negative or of low quality. The adverb form 'badly' emerged in Middle English to describe actions done in a severe or harmful manner.
