Etymology
The word 'childishly' is derived from the adjective 'childish', which dates back to the 16th century. The suffix '-ly' is added to the base form 'childish' to form the adverb 'childishly'. The term 'childish' originally referred to characteristics or behavior typical of a child, such as immaturity or innocence. Over time, 'childishly' has come to be used to describe actions or attitudes that are immature or lacking in sophistication.
