boldly

/ˈboʊɫdɫi/ adv B1

bravely

Word Origin Bold comes from Old English beald, from Proto-Germanic *balþaz, and ultimately PIE *bhel- 'to blow, swell'. The original image is of someone puffed up with courage, swollen with bravery. That same root gives us bellows (that blow air) and belly (a swelling), so boldly carries that sense of expansive daring.
