Etymology
'augmentedly' originates from Latin, specifically from the verb 'augmentare' (from 'augere'), where 'augere' meant 'to increase'.
'augmentedly' developed from Middle English/Old French forms of 'augment' (Middle English 'augmenten', Old French 'augmenter') and was formed in modern English by adding the adverbial suffix '-ly' to 'augmented'.
Initially related to the root meaning 'to increase' or 'make larger', the form has been used to express 'in an increased/enhanced manner' (adverbial use) in modern formations.
