Origin: Formed within English, by derivation. Etymons: un- prefix1, lustily adv.
Etymology: < un- prefix1 + lustily adv. Compare earlier unlusty adj., and also earlier unlust n.Compare Middle High German (in late sources) unlusticlīchen , Old Swedish olustelika , both in sense ‘unpleasantly’. Forms with medial -e- could alternatively be interpreted as reflecting forms of lust n. with final -e , and hence belong instead at unlustly adv.
Obsolete.
Without vigour, energy, or enthusiasm; lazily, idly; weakly; unwillingly.
ΘΚΠ
the world > action or operation > inaction > disinclination to act or listlessness > [adverb]
