- 1女兒般的；盡女兒本分的（偏書面、略舊）
Behaving in the way people think a daughter should behave toward her parents: caring, respectful, loyal, ready to help. You meet it more in books and older speech than from young people on the bus. Daughterly duty is a set phrase, and it often carries a slightly old, flavour — not just “she has a mum and dad.” Though actually, what a daughter is “expected” to do changes a lot by family and by culture, so the word can sound dated or a bit today. Everyday English more often says like a good daughter or just names the behaviour (she looks after her mum). It is about the daughter’s part in the family, not about being or young.
組成daughter + -ly (“in the manner of”). Same pattern as motherly and fatherly.
