In a farcical manner; in a way that is absurd, ridiculous, or resembling a farce.
Formed from 'farcical' by adding the adverbial suffix '-ly,' which converts adjectives into adverbs. This suffix comes from Old English and Germanic roots meaning 'like' or 'in the manner of.'
The '-ly' suffix is one of English's most productive word-building tools—almost any adjective can become an adverb by adding '-ly,' letting us describe how something happens in nearly infinite ways.
