Word origin
The word 'tiresomely' is derived from the adjective 'tiresome,' which originated in the mid-18th century from the verb 'tire' meaning 'to make weary.' Over time, 'tiresome' evolved to describe something that causes weariness, boredom, or annoyance. The suffix '-ly' was added to create the adverb form 'tiresomely,' which is commonly used to modify verbs or adjectives to indicate the manner in which an action is performed.
