Definition
With great focus and concentration, paying careful attention to something.
Etymology
From Latin 'intentus' (stretched toward), from 'intendere' (to stretch toward, direct toward). The sense evolved from physical stretching to mental concentration.
Kelly Says
The Latin root 'intendere' meant physically stretching toward something—'intently' kept that metaphor alive, so when you watch something 'intently,' you're mentally stretching yourself toward it like an archer aiming.
