Etymology
The word amazingly comes from amaze ('to surprise or confuse') plus the ending -ly that makes an adverb. A helpful way to remember it is to think of a maze ('a confused path'): when something leaves you like that you feel wonder or surprise, so amazingly describes something that causes that feeling.
