Etymology
The word 'lustily' originates from the late Middle English term 'lusti', which meant 'pleasure', 'desire', or 'zest'. It traces back to the Old Norse word 'lustr', meaning 'to enjoy', and relates to the Proto-Germanic term '*lustiz', which conveys a sense of desire or appetite. Over the centuries, the word evolved in usage, coming to denote not just a strong desire but an exuberant or hearty manner of expressing oneself. The adverb form 'lustily' emphasizes the liveliness and enthusiasm behind the actions described.
