In a manner that corrupts or tends to corrupt; in a way that causes corruption.
Formed by adding the adverbial suffix '-ly' to 'corruptive.' This creates an adverb describing how an action is performed or how something acts with corrupting influence.
While 'corruptively' is technically correct, it's rarely used—most writers prefer 'corruptly' instead. It's a good reminder that just because you can add '-ly' to an adjective doesn't mean the resulting adverb will actually catch on!
