In a manner characteristic of England or English people; in the English way or according to English customs.
From English + -ly (Old English -lice, meaning 'in the manner of'). The -ly adverbial suffix is one of the most ancient and productive in English, going back to Old English times.
The -ly suffix is so normal now that we barely notice it, but 'englishly' shows its ancient roots—we've been tacking -ly onto adjectives to make adverbs for over a thousand years, making it one of English's most enduring word-building tools.
