discretely

/dɪsˈkɹitli/ adv

As a separate independent unit.

Word Origin From Latin dis- 'apart' and cernere 'to separate' — discrete means 'separate, distinct,' and discretely means 'in a separate manner.' Unlike discreet, which evolved to mean prudent, discrete kept the original sense of distinct parts. The same root gives us secret (set apart), excrete (to sift out), and concern (to sift together), and the breakdown dis+crete+ly shows apart-separate-adverb.

adv As a separate independent unit.
