electronically

/ˌɪˌɫɛkˈtɹɑnɪkəˌɫi/, /ɪˌɫɛkˈtɹɑnɪkɫi/ adv B2 ✓

By means of electronics, or of electronic technology.

Word Origin The word goes back to Greek 'ēlektron', meaning 'amber' — the fossilized tree resin that, when rubbed, produces static electricity. That's why we have 'electron', 'electric', and all the 'electro-' words. The suffix '-ically' turns it into an adverb, so electronically means 'by means of electrons', but the root is literally 'amber'. Related words: 'electricity', 'electrode', 'electrocute'.

adv By means of electronics, or of electronic technology. B2 ✓
