Etymology
The term 'textually' derives from the word 'text', which originates from the Latin 'textus', meaning 'woven' or 'fabric'. This Latin term is related to the verb 'texere', which means 'to weave'. Over time, 'text' evolved in the English language to refer to written works or the main body of a written or printed work. The adverb 'textually' was formed in the late 19th century to specifically address aspects concerning the text itself. As linguistics and literary analysis developed, the need for a word to precisely describe considerations based on the literal words used in texts arose, leading to the adoption and popular usage of 'textually'. Today, it is commonly used in educational, literary, and legal discussions to emphasize the importance of the written word.
