blatantly

/ˈbɫeɪtəntɫi/ adv

Word Origin Blatantly comes from blatant, coined by Edmund Spenser in the 16th century from Latin blaterare 'to babble, chatter noisily.' Spenser used it to describe a thousand-tongued monster, so blatantly originally meant 'in a loud, clamorous way.' Now it means unashamedly obvious. Related: blatancy.
