Biassedly

/ˈbaɪ.ə.stɪd.li/ adverb

Definition

In a manner that shows unfair preference or partiality; in a biased way.

Etymology

From the adjective 'biassed' (British spelling) plus the adverbial suffix '-ly'. This formal adverbial form allows modification of verbs to show bias in action.

Kelly Says

This is a rare but perfectly grammatical adverb—you could write 'the referee biassedly made his calls,' showing that bias can be an action, not just a state of mind!
