outrageously
UK: aʊtˈreɪdʒəsli | US: aʊtˈreɪdʒəsli
adv. in a shocking, offensive, or excessively unreasonable manner
adv. to an extreme or exaggerated degree
The word "outrageously" derives from the noun "outrage," which entered English in the 13th century from Old French "outrage" (meaning "excess, insult, violence"), itself from Latin "ultra" (beyond) + the suffix "-aticum." Over time, "outrage" evolved to signify extreme behavior or shockingly offensive acts. The suffix "-ous" forms adjectives (e.g., "dangerous"), and "-ly" converts adjectives into adverbs. Thus, "outrageously" literally means "in a manner that goes beyond reasonable limits."
