Duskishly

/ˈdʌskɪʃli/ adverb

Definition

In a somewhat dusky or darkish manner; rather dimly or with a twilight-like quality.

Etymology

From 'duskish' plus the adverb-forming suffix '-ly,' creating an adverb that describes doing something in a somewhat dusky manner.

Kelly Says

Stacking '-ish' and '-ly' together ('duskishly') creates a wonderfully vague, imprecise quality—perfect for describing something that's ambiguously between light and dark.
