foggily

/fˈɑɡɪli/ adv

In a foggy manner

Word Origin From Old Norse fok 'snow flurry, spray' — fog originally meant a driving snow or spray, then any thick mist. Foggily means in a foggy, unclear manner. The -y and -ly suffixes build the adverb. Related words: foggy, fogbound, defog. The root is probably imitative of blowing.
