Aurorally

/ɔːˈrɔːrəli/ adverb

Definition

In a manner relating to or characteristic of an aurora; in the way auroras behave or appear.

Etymology

From auroral (Latin aurora + -al) plus -ly adverb suffix. This is an extremely rare adverb, likely appearing only in poetic or highly specialized atmospheric science contexts.

Kelly Says

Aurorally is so uncommon that it barely qualifies as a real word—you'd probably never hear it outside of poetry trying to describe lights that shimmer like the northern lights.
