Summary:directly av The other day I was discussing peculiar words with a friend from Joe Batts Arm. She said, I bet you'll never guess what Da-rackley means?" After thinking for a few min- utes I said maybe it meant something like directly. She told me this word is quite common in Joe Batts Arm and is derived from directly. But where directly (eg.

[see d'rackly',] 'directly' 'the once', etc.] 'de reckly', 'da rackly', 'd'once' in a while, when I'm ready DNE-cit Used I Not used Used I d'rackly, rackly, treckly, 'the once', 'de reckly', 'da rackly', 'd'once' Checked by Cathy Wiseman on Mon 09 Feb 2015
