Origin of the word deliciously

The word "deliciously" is an adverb that is derived from the adjective "delicious." The word "delicious" comes from the Latin word "delectus," which means "chosen" or "selected." In the 15th century, the Latin word "delectus" was adapted into Middle English as "delicious," with the meaning "pleasing" or "agreeable." The adverb "deliciously" was then formed by adding the suffix "-ly," which is a common way to form adverbs in English. So, "deliciously" literally means "in a pleasing or agreeable manner," and is used to describe food or drink that is tasty or enjoyable. For example: "She cooked the meal deliciously, and it was a real treat."
