lastingly

/ˈɫæstɪŋɫi/ adv

In a lasting manner, in a way that persists.

Word Origin Surprisingly, lastingly comes from a root meaning 'track, footprint.' Old English læstan meant 'to follow a track, to continue in a path,' which evolved into 'endure, continue.' So when something lasts, it follows a long track through time. The breakdown last+ing+ly shows the present participle turned adverb. Related words include everlasting (enduring forever). The PIE root *leyst- gives us the idea of a footprint that remains.
