- 1祭司的；聖職的；像神父／祭司的
Priestly means 'like a priest' or 'to do with a priest'. Priestly duties are the work a priest does. Priestly clothes are the special clothes. You can also use it about a manner — a priestly calm, a priestly look — when someone seems serious, set apart, or holy in the way people imagine a priest. Writers use it about religion, history, and character. Though actually, the -ly here does not make an adverb. You do not say 'he spoke priestly' to mean 'in a priest's way'; you say 'in a priestly way'. That trips , because so many -ly words are . This one is an adjective, in the same family of shape as friendly or lively.
組成From Middle English prestly; equivalent to priest + -ly (here -ly makes an adjective meaning 'like' or 'to do with').
