disorderedly

/dɪˈsɔɹdɝdli/ adv

In a disordered way; haphazardly, chaotically.

Word Origin 'Order' from Latin 'ordo' (row, arrangement). 'Disorder' is the negation — lack of order. 'Disorderedly' is the adverb form, meaning in a disordered manner. The same root gives us 'ordinary', 'extraordinary', 'subordinate', 'coordinate'. The PIE root *ar- 'to fit together' is the source. So 'disorderedly' is literally 'in a way that is apart from order'.
