Ever wonder why Musical.ly had "ly" as the ending?

As an Anglophone, I do not spend enough time reading non-English writing, and the piece "TikTok Insider: Zhang Yiming's Journey With Huge Waves" is a fascinating read at Bytedance and Zhang Yiming's history, covering the trajectory from early days to today, while having those insightful microlevel anecdotes. I highly encourage reading the original piece.
