In a manner that is elevated, refined, or morally or intellectually superior; speaking or behaving in a high-minded or exalted way.
From elevated meaning 'raised' or 'exalted' in a metaphorical sense, combined with adverbial suffix -ly. Originally from Latin elevare 'to lift up.'
When someone speaks elevatedly, they're being lofty and high-minded—they might discuss abstract ideas rather than practical concerns, which can make them sound either brilliant or snobbish depending on the situation.
