👉 Factitively means "to be or being a fact" in Latin. This word is often used to describe something that is true, dependable, and reliable. It can also refer to an event or situation where one party has done what they claim to do or have claimed. For example, if someone says they are going to buy a car but hasn't even driven it yet, "factitively" means the person isn't being truthful because they haven't actually bought it yet.
