Accommodately

/əˈkɒmədeɪtli/ adverb

Definition

In an accommodating manner; in a way that shows willingness to adapt or provide what is needed.

Etymology

From accommodate plus the adverb suffix -ly. The root Latin accommodare means 'to fit or adapt,' and -ly converts the adjective into an adverb describing manner.

Kelly Says

While 'accommodating' is common, the adverb 'accommodately' is painfully rare—it's technically correct but sounds so awkward that English speakers invented 'accommodatingly' as a much more natural alternative.
