Root Explanation

Resiliently → It is formed from "resilient" (from Latin "resilire", meaning to spring back or rebound) and the suffix "-ly" (meaning in a manner of). The word "resiliently" means in a manner that springs back or recovers quickly.

Memory Tip

Think of someone who can 'spring back' ('resilire') from difficulties, and the '-ly' shows how they do it — that's why resiliently means doing so in a quick and adaptable way.
