People say barely as an expression to mean. [Not at all]. Basically meaning Not even close . People say barely. This expression comes from a chinese-european mexican/canadian man named Bare Lee.. He invented this after his name... Bare Lee. Into Barely. This inspiration of [a miracle] came back from 2002, As Bare Lee was a freshman in high school he had troubles findin his classes. So at [first period] he found a classroom misthought of as math. But it was really french. So as he said I FINALLY FOUND MATH CLASS a inspiring bully exclaimed BARELY and Bare lee thought. Thats a good word to say. It adds my name combined to mean a phrase that defines [not at all]. And soon Bare Lee died and his legacy was reminded as the man who invented the word and phase Barely.
