affectively

/əˈfɛktɪvɫi/ adv

In an affective way; emotionally.

Word Origin Built from Latin ad- 'to' and facere 'to do, make' — affect literally means 'to do something to' someone or something. The -ive and -ly suffixes turn it into an adverb describing how something is done emotionally. The same facere root gives us effect (do out), infect (do in), perfect (done thoroughly), and factory (place where things are made).
