Etymology
The word 'unjustifiably' is formed by combining the prefix 'un-' meaning 'not' with the adjective 'justifiable', which is derived from the verb 'justify'. The suffix '-ly' is added to form the adverb 'unjustifiably'. The origin of 'justify' can be traced back to the Latin word 'justificare', which means 'to act justly or rightly'. Over time, the word evolved in English to convey the idea of providing a valid reason or explanation for something. The adverb 'unjustifiably' is used to describe actions or decisions that lack proper justification or reasoning.
