Etymology
The word 'trivially' originates from the Latin term 'trivialis', which means 'of the crossroads' or 'commonplace'. This term is derived from 'trivium', which refers to the intersection of three roads. In medieval education, the trivium consisted of grammar, rhetoric, and logic, considered fundamental and foundational subjects. Over time, the adjective 'trivial' evolved to describe something that is ordinary or of little value or importance, eventually leading to the adverbial form we use today. 'Trivially' has been adopted in various academic contexts, particularly in mathematical and logical discussions, to indicate clarity or an obvious nature in proofs or solutions.
