fully
UK: ˈfʊli | US: ˈfʊli
adv. completely or entirely
adv. sufficiently or adequately
adv. at least (used for emphasis)
The word "fully" originates from Old English fullīce, combining full (meaning "complete" or "entire") and the adverbial suffix -ly, which turns adjectives into adverbs. The root full traces back to Proto-Germanic fullaz, related to Latin plēnus (full) and Greek plērēs (filled). Over time, -ly became a standard way to form adverbs in English, making "fully" a straightforward derivation meaning "in a complete manner."
