## AI Etymology
Noticeably comes from noticeable + -ly, from notice, from Latin notitia ('a being known'), from notus ('known'), past participle of noscere ('to know'). The suffix is part of the word's derivational shape, marking the final grammatical or semantic role while the base supplies the central meaning. As an adverb, it means "to a degree that is clearly perceptible", so the modern sense keeps the older action or relation visible. Relevant historical forms include Latin notitia and Latin noscere.
