In a way that is clearly visible or easily noticed; obviously or prominently.
From conspicuous (clearly visible) + -ly (adverb suffix). Conspicuous comes from Latin conspicuus, meaning visible or obvious.
You'll hear 'conspicuously absent' a lot—it's a funny phrase because absence shouldn't be conspicuous, but it means the absence was *so obvious* everyone noticed it (like when a friend doesn't show up to their own birthday party).
