Firstly is acceptable now. In the past 'first' was the only acceptable noun and I personally think it sounds better, but both are correct. Previous post: "'first' was the only acceptable noun" I disagree. "First" as a noun was never in dispute. But as an adverb it always has been, and still is, incorrect.
The word "firstly", meaning "initially" or "finishing in the first position", is an adverb but and is not considered to be proper for use in formal English. "First" is the preferred word.
you say first, because firstly is not a word
To use firstly or first at the start of your sentence, all you have to do is put the word and add a comma (,). Then just continue the sentence. Example: First, i picked up the bobby pin and put it on the table. Firstly, i found the independent clause. Words like first/firstly second/secondly are used to order ponts in your writing. For example: There are several reasons why I think cars should be banned. First cars are a major source of pollution............................................. Second cars are expensive to own and maintain................................ Last cars are dangerous.......................................................
No, firstly is an adverb.First, however, can be used as a noun or an adverb (or an adjective, for that matter), and can always be used in place of firstly.

Because there are no monsters, you can use your hammer and break all the rocks on the first floor without worry.
