Origin of the word compactly

"Compactly" stems from the Latin word "compactus," meaning "pressed together" or "firmly made." This word evolved into the Middle English "compact," which meant "closely packed" or "firm." The "-ly" suffix was added to create the adverb "compactly," meaning "in a compact or dense manner." Therefore, the word's origin reflects its meaning: something that is tightly packed or arranged in a small space.
