Etymology

The word 'demonstrably' originates from the Latin word 'demonstrare', meaning 'to show by proof'. The term passed into Old French as 'démonstrer' before entering the English language. It has been used in English since the late 16th century, primarily in the context of proving a point or showing evidence. Over time, the term has evolved to be commonly used in formal and academic discussions, signifying that something is not just claimed or supposed, but can be shown to be true through facts or logical reasoning. The suffix '-bly' indicates it is an adverb, showing that the action of demonstrating is done in a clear and obvious manner.
