Word origin

From thus + -ly, dating from the 19th century, seemingly coined by educated writers to make fun of uneducated persons trying to sound genteel, with a false inference that thus is not an adverb.

Used in a sentence

  • Ar, tell me it is not so thusly as this thusness wouldst seem!
  • His course can only be akkounted for thusly:
  • He had an attack of catarrh not long ago, and it happened, as J. Billings would say, "thusly:"
