Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from the adjective 'signal' (meaning notable or striking), originating from Middle French 'signale' and ultimately from Latin 'signum' (a mark or sign). The suffix '-ly' was added in the late 16th century to form an adverb indicating something done in a remarkably distinct or conspicuous manner.
