Origin:
The word "unkindly" first appeared in the late 14th century, derived from the Old English words "uncynde" (unnatural) and "lice" (like, manner). In Middle English, it evolved into "unkindely," which retained its original meaning of "unnatural" but also began to be used figuratively to describe unkind or cruel behavior. By the 16th century, the modern spelling "unkindly" had become established.
Usage:
"Unkindly" is typically used to describe actions or intentions that are deliberately hurtful or uncaring. It can also be used to describe something that is unfortunate or unpleasant, especially when it is perceived as being unjust or unfair.
