advertently

/ædvˈɜtəntli/ adv

intentionally, on purpose, purposely

Word Origin From Latin advertere 'to turn toward' — advertently means doing something with attention, turning your mind toward it. The root vertere 'to turn' is incredibly productive: it gives us convert (turn with), divert (turn aside), invert (turn in), and even version (a turning, a form). The negative inadvertent means 'not turning toward,' i.e., unintentional.
