chokingly

/ˈtʃoʊkɪŋli/ adv

While or as if choking, or in such a way as to cause one to choke.

Word Origin Choke comes from Old English 'ācēocian,' related to the word for cheek or jaw — the idea is something constricting the throat. Chokingly adds -ing and -ly to make an adverb describing the manner of choking. The same root gives us cheek, and you can almost feel the constriction.
