The Spanish adverb 'artificialmente' (meaning 'artificially') comes from combining the adjective 'artificial' with the adverbial suffix '-mente'. The suffix '-mente' itself comes from the Latin word 'mens' meaning 'mind', and is used in Spanish to form adverbs from adjectives, similar to how '-ly' works in English.

The adjective 'artificial' traces back to the Latin word 'artificialis', which was formed from three Latin elements: 'ars' meaning 'art' or 'skill', 'facere' meaning 'to make or do', and the suffix '-alis' meaning 'relating to'. So etymologically, something artificial is literally something 'relating to making with skill'.

Several common Spanish words share roots with 'artificialmente'. The word 'arte' (art) comes from the same Latin root 'ars'. The verb 'hacer' (to do/make) comes from Latin 'facere'. You might also recognize the '-mente' ending in many other Spanish adverbs like 'normalmente' (normally), 'finalmente' (finally), and 'rápidamente' (rapidly).

The English word 'artificial' is a direct cognate, sharing the exact same Latin origin as the Spanish word. Other related English words include 'art' and 'artifact' (from Latin 'ars'), and 'fact', 'factory', and 'manufacture' (from Latin 'facere'). The word 'mental' comes from the same Latin 'mens' that gave Spanish its '-mente' suffix.
