uprightly

• 古旧副词，意为“诚实正直地、合乎道德地”，或“笔直地、竖直地”。用于描述以诚实正直的方式或以垂直姿势做的动作。现代英语中已基本不用，多由“upright”或其他说法替代。

An archaic adverb meaning 'in an upright manner' or 'honestly and morally.' It was used to describe actions performed with integrity or in a vertical position. The form is now largely obsolete in modern English, replaced by 'upright' as an adverb or other phrases.
