Key Differences

Remember the phrase "Lie in the particulars," which helps recall the "lie" within "particularly."

Note that "particular" is the root, and "ly" is a common adverbial suffix, so they form "particularly."

Associate with "peculiarly," which is spelled similarly at the end with "arly."

Think of "particularly" as something you need to be specific about, and being specific means you're not lying, hence "lie" in the middle.
