Concludingly

/kənˈkluːdɪŋli/ adverb

Definition

In a way that concludes or serves as a conclusion.

Etymology

Concluding (present participle of conclude) + -ly adverbial suffix.

Kelly Says

Found mainly in formal written English, 'concludingly' does grammatical work that 'in conclusion' does more naturally—it's an example of how English constantly experiments with -ly forms even when simpler options exist.
