Word origin
The word 'senselessly' is derived from the adjective 'senseless,' which dates back to the 14th century. It is formed by combining the word 'sense' with the suffix '-less,' indicating the absence of sense or meaning. Over time, 'senselessly' has come to be used to describe actions or behaviors that lack purpose or reason, often in a negative or destructive manner.
