Etymology of ACCEPTINGLY

The word "acceptingly" is formed from the base word "accept" and the suffix "-ingly".

The base word "accept" originated from the Latin word "accipere", which is a combination of "ad" (meaning "to") and "capere" (meaning "to take"). It was adapted into Old French as "accepter" and later entered Middle English as "accepten".

The suffix "-ingly" is derived from the Old English suffix "-lice" or "-lic", meaning "like" or "similar to". Over time, "-lice" evolved into "-ly", and the final "-e" was added to aid pronunciation. Thus, "-ingly" is used to form adverbs from adjectives, indicating the manner in which an action is performed.
