Etymology

The word "mathematically" derives from the base "mathematic," which traces back to the Greek "mathēmatikós" (μανθάνω, "to learn"). The suffix "-al" (Latin "-alis") forms adjectives, and "-ly" (Old English "-lice") converts adjectives into adverbs. Thus, "mathematically" literally means "in a math-related manner," reflecting systematic, exact reasoning.
