Etymology
The word 'twistingly' is derived from the verb 'twist', which comes from the Old English 'twist', meaning a cord or thread twisted together. Over time, 'twist' evolved to include the action of turning or bending something out of shape. The adverb 'twistingly' was formed by adding the suffix '-ly' to 'twisting', which is the present participle of the verb 'twist'. The word has been used in English language to describe movements or actions that involve twisting or turning in a curved manner.
