truthfully

/ˈtɹuθfəɫi/ adv

In a truthful manner

Word Origin From Old English trēowth 'truth, faith, pledge' — truthfully means 'in a truthful manner.' The root goes back to PIE *deru- 'firm, solid' (also in tree and durable), so truth is something steadfast. The -ful suffix adds 'full of,' and -ly makes it an adverb. Related: truly, trust, betroth (pledge).
