Word origin

The word 'gullibly' originated from the adjective 'gullible', which comes from the verb 'gull' meaning to deceive or cheat. The term 'gullible' has been in use since the late 16th century, derived from the verb 'gull' with the suffix '-ible' meaning capable of. Over time, 'gullibly' evolved to describe the adverbial form of 'gullible', indicating the manner in which someone is easily deceived or too trusting.
