Marvelously

/ˈmɑːɹvələsli/ adverb

Definition

In a way that is wonderful, amazing, and causes wonder or delight.

Etymology

From 'marvelous' (from Old French 'merveillous,' from Latin 'mirabilis' meaning 'wonderful') plus the adverb suffix '-ly.'

Kelly Says

The root 'mirabilis' also gives us 'miracle'—so marvelously and miraculous come from the same Latin ancestor meaning 'worthy of wonder'!
