Etymology (EN): M.E. erlich (adj.), erliche (adv.); O.E. ærlice, from ær “soon, ere” (from P.Gmc. *airiz, from PIE *āier- “day, morning,” cf. Av. ayar- “day, day time,” ayarə.drājah- “duration of one day,” ayarə.bara- “day’s ride,” Mid/Mod.Pers. parēr “the day before yesterday,” from *parā.ayer- “the day before”)

  • -lice “-ly,” adverbial suffix.

Etymology (PE): Âqâzin adj. of âqâz “beginning,” from Proto-Iranian *āgaHz-, from prefix ā- + *gaHz- “to run, start,” cf. Sogdian āγāz “beginning, start” (Cheung 2007).
