'disgracefully' originates from the word 'disgraceful,' which is derived from the Latin word 'disgratia,' where 'dis-' meant 'apart' and 'gratia' meant 'favor.'

'disgratia' transformed into the Old French word 'desgrace,' and eventually became the modern English word 'disgraceful' through Middle English.

Initially, it meant 'loss of favor or grace,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'shameful or dishonorable.'
