associatively

/əˈsoʊʃəˌtɪvli/ adv

In an associative way.

Word Origin From Latin ad- 'to' and socius 'companion' — literally 'to make a companion of'. The word associate originally meant to join as a partner, and associatively describes doing something in a connected, partner-like way. The root socius also gives us society, social, and sociology. The PIE root *sekw- meant 'to follow', so a socius is someone who follows alongside you. That's why associatively thinking means linking ideas that follow each other naturally.
