## AI Etymology
Unavoidably is from unavoidable + -ly. Avoid descends from Anglo-French avoider, from Old French esvuidier ('to empty out'), from es- ('out') + vuidier ('to empty'). Important recorded forms include un- (Old English) and esvuidier (Old French). Morphologically, the un- element marks negation, reversal, removal, or deprivation, while the base supplies the action, quality, or state being denied or undone. The modern sense is largely compositional, with the historical elements narrowing into a stable English lexical item. In current use it covers in a way that cannot be avoided; inevitably.
