Conglobately

/kɒnˈɡloʊbətli/ adverb

Definition

In a conglobated manner; in a ball-shaped or rounded cluster; forming a spherical or globular arrangement.

Etymology

From conglobated plus the adverb suffix -ly, creating an adverb that describes how something is arranged or formed in a conglobated way.

Kelly Says

Adding '-ly' to medical adjectives created a precision language for describing anatomy—'the glands arranged conglobately' is more specific than simply saying 'in a cluster.'
