While 'liquid' is clear, the financial meaning of 'liquidly' is not a direct derivation from the physical state of being liquid.

Etymology

The word liquidly comes from liquid, from a Latin root meaning 'flowing' or 'fluid'. A helpful way to remember the financial sense is to think of liquidate, which at first meant 'make liquid' or 'turn into cash', so liquidly means 'easy to change into cash'.
