differentially

/ˌdɪfɝˈɛnʃəɫli/ adv

With regard to differentiation

Word Origin Built on Latin 'ferre' 'to carry' with the prefix 'dis-' (apart) — 'differ' literally means 'to carry apart', hence to be different. The adverb differentially comes from 'differential', which is about differences. The same root 'ferre' is incredibly productive: 'offer' (carry to), 'prefer' (carry before), 'refer' (carry back), 'transfer' (carry across), 'infer' (carry in), 'confer' (carry together), 'suffer' (carry under), 'defer' (carry away). You can almost see the carrying in each.
