Etymology of PARFITLY

The word "parfitly" is derived from the Middle English term "parfitli", which emerged in the 14th century. In turn, "parfitli" is a variation of the word "parfit" in Middle English, meaning "perfect". This Middle English term originated from the Old French word "parfit", which entered Anglo-Norman from the Latin word "perfectus", also denoting "perfect". The Latin term "perfectus" itself is the past participle of the verb "perficere", meaning "to complete" or "to accomplish thoroughly". The word "Parfitly" retains the essence of its original meaning, representing completion or perfection.
