Root Explanation

Fleecily → It is formed from "fleece" (from Old English *flēos*, meaning the wool covering of a sheep) and the suffix "-ily" (meaning in a manner). The word "fleecily" describes something done in a manner resembling or characteristic of fleece, often implying softness or warmth.

Memory Tip

Think of the soft, warm covering of a sheep's wool ('fleece') and how doing something 'in a manner' ('-ily') like that suggests a gentle or cozy quality.
