Forecastingly

/ˈfɔːrkæstɪŋli/ adverb

Definition

In a manner that predicts or anticipates something; done with foresight about what's coming.

Etymology

From 'forecast' plus the adverbial suffix '-ingly,' which turns verbs and adjectives into adverbs describing how something is done. This is a rare formation combining predictive action with manner of execution.

Kelly Says

This adverb is so uncommon you'll rarely hear it spoken aloud, but it captures something beautiful: doing something while thinking ahead about consequences, like a chess master moving 'forecastingly' by planning ten moves ahead.
