Word Origin & Etymology

Formed in Middle English from the adjective 'constant' plus the adverbial suffix '-ly'. The root 'constant' derives via Old French from the Latin 'constans', the present participle of 'constare' ('to stand firm, remain steadfast'), from 'con-' (intensive prefix) and 'stare' ('to stand').
