- 1
Doing or saying something in a very serious, sincere way, often with a sense of formality or ceremony, sometimes without smiling — 'he solemnly promised to tell the truth,' 'she nodded solemnly.' Often used for promises, oaths, or important, weighty moments.
莊嚴地、鄭重地(嚴肅認真,常帶儀式感)
組成solemn + -ly. "Solemn" probably comes from a Latin word for a religious ceremony held every year, though this history is hard to be fully certain of.

solemnlyadv/ˈsɒləmli/

In a solemn manner.
- And yet, though the happiness may be unenduring, what heart, though seared by time and worldly care, can fail to sympathise with those emotions of early life? In after years there are none such. They are the high noon of earthly joy. After them, life goes on decayingly and solemnly to its shadowy sunset.
