Definition
In a dowie manner; in a sad, mournful, or doleful way.
Etymology
From Scottish 'dowie' (sad, doleful) plus the adverb-forming suffix '-ly.'
Kelly Says
The adverb 'dowily' lets Scottish speakers express that particular quality of melancholy gloom in a single word—something that would take several words to convey in standard English.
