Etymology
The word 'weakly' originated from the Middle English word 'weikly' which means 'in a weak manner'. It has been used in the English language since the 14th century. The term 'weakly' is derived from the Old English 'wฤclฤซฤ' which also means 'weak'. Over time, the word has evolved to encompass both physical and non-physical meanings related to lacking strength or vigor.
