clearheadedly

/klˈɪɹhɪdᵻdli/ adv

In a clearheaded manner.

Word Origin From Latin clarus 'clear, bright' and Old English heafod 'head' — literally 'in a clear-headed manner.' The root clarus gives us clarify, clarity, declare (make clear), and clarinet (a clear-sounding instrument). The PIE root *kel- 'to shout, call' is the source of clarus, because a clear sound is a calling sound. So clearheadedly is a great example of how 'clear' moved from sound to light to thought.
