解説 Definition

覚え方のコツ Memory Tip
annual（年1回の、年次の）が見えればほぼ取れる語。まず annual report, annual meeting, annual sales など「年単位で区切る」定番表現をセットで覚え、そこに -ly が付いて「毎年」「年に一度のペースで」と考えると定着しやすい。every year よりやや書き言葉・事務的で、paid annually, reviewed annually のように契約・会計・制度の文脈で頻出。yearly と近いが、annually の方がフォーマル寄り。anniversary も同じ ann-（year）仲間。
See annual inside it: annual means once a year, and annually is the adverb form. That is why it often appears in formal phrases like reviewed annually or paid annually. It sounds more official than every year. You can also connect it to yearly, but remember annually is usually more formal.
例文
The company meets annually in January.
その会社は毎年1月に会議を開きます。
He donates annually to his favorite charity.
彼は毎年自分の好きな慈善団体に寄付している。

annually の語源・成り立ち Etymology
ラテン語 annualis（年ごとの）から。語根 annus（年）に接尾辞 -al（～の）と副詞語尾 -ly が付いた形。関連語: anniversary（記念日）、annual（年次の）。「年が一巡りする」イメージで「毎年」の意味になった。
"Annually" comes from Latin "annualis," meaning yearly, based on "annus," meaning year. In English, the adjective "annual" came first, and "-ly" was later added to form the adverb. The word kept the basic idea of something happening once each year. Related words include "annual" and "anniversary."
