adoringly

/əˈdɔɹɪŋli/ adv

In an adoring manner.

Word Origin 'Adoringly' is the adverb from 'adoring,' which comes from 'adore' (Latin ad- + orare, to pray toward). So it means looking at someone with prayerful devotion. The -ing makes it a present participle, and -ly turns it into an adverb. The root 'orare' also gives us 'oracle' (a divine utterance) and 'orison' (a prayer). So adoringly is like gazing with a prayer in your eyes.
