/ˈsɒlɪdli//ˈsɑːlɪdli/

"Solidly" comes from the adjective "solid," which ultimately traces back to the Latin word "solidus." "Solidus" originally meant "whole" or "entire," and later developed the meaning of "firm" or "strong." Over time, "solid" came to describe something with a definite shape and resistant to pressure. The suffix "-ly" was added to "solid" to create the adverb "solidly," indicating a manner or degree. Therefore, "solidly" signifies something that is done firmly, securely, or without doubt.
