'quickly' originates from Old English 'cwiclice,' where 'cwic' meant 'alive' and '-lice' was an adverbial suffix. 'Change' originates from Old French 'changier,' which meant 'to alter or exchange.'

'quickly' evolved from Middle English 'quikly' and 'change' from Middle English 'chaungen.'

Initially, 'quickly' meant 'in a lively manner,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'at a fast pace.' 'Change' has largely retained its original meaning of 'to alter or modify.'
