jealouslyadverb
ghen tị
/ˈdʒeləsli//ˈdʒeləsli/The word "jealously" is derived from the Old French word "gelos," which means "jealous." This Old French term is believed to have come from the Latin word "gelosus," which is itself derived from "gelare," meaning "to freeze" or "to ignite." This latter meaning may seem anomalous, but it's thought to refer to the intense passion and fiery emotions associated with jealousy. In Middle English, the word "jealously" emerged around the 14th century, initially meaning "fiercely" or "furiously." Over time, its meaning shifted to its modern connotation, "with jealousy" or "in a jealous manner." Despite its evolution, the core idea of intense passion and strong emotions remains at the heart of the word "jealously."
