In a faded manner; in a way that shows loss of color, brightness, or vigor; with a faint or diminished quality.
From 'faded' (past participle of 'fade') + '-ly' adverb suffix. 'Fade' comes from Old English fadian, originally meaning 'to fit' or 'suitable,' later developing the sense of 'to lose color.'
Fadedly is a rarely used word that demonstrates how English's '-ly' suffix can technically attach to almost any adjective, creating grammatically valid adverbs that native speakers rarely need and often wouldn't naturally produce.
