Etymology: "Unblemished" is built from "un-" meaning "not" and "blemished," the past participle of "blemish," which in turn comes from Old French "blemir," meaning "to make pale or injure." The idea behind "blemish" is therefore a surface that has been dulled or marred, and "unblemished" describes one that has escaped that damage. "Unblemishedly" adds the suffix "-ly," the common English marker that turns an adjective into an adverb of manner. It is a plain, transparent formation: the word describes an action done in a way that leaves no flaw, as in a task completed unblemishedly. Its meaning follows directly from its parts, with no change in sense along the way.
