Origin of 'ebulliently'

The word 'ebullient' originates from the Latin 'ebullientem', which is the present participle of 'ebullire', meaning 'to bubble out' or 'to boil'. This verb itself is derived from 'e-' meaning 'out' and 'bullire' meaning 'to boil'. The term was adopted into English in the early 19th century, initially used in a more literal sense to describe boiling liquids. Over time, the usage expanded figuratively to describe a person's exuberance or overflowing emotions, capturing the essence of vibrant energy and liveliness. The adverbial form 'ebulliently' developed later, reflecting the same energetic qualities. Today, it is often used in both informal and formal contexts to convey a sense of joyful enthusiasm.
