Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Derived from the adjective genuine, originating in the late 16th century from Latin genuinus meaning 'native' or 'natural' (from genu 'knee', in reference to the Roman custom of a father acknowledging a newborn child by placing it on his knee). The adverbial suffix -ly was added in English to denote manner, shifting the semantic scope toward sincerity and truthfulness.
