exotically

/ɪɡˈzɑtɪkəli/ adv C1 ✓

In an exotic manner.

Word Origin Exotic comes from Greek 'exotikos', from 'exo' 'outside' — literally 'from the outside,' foreign, strange. Exotically means 'in a fascinatingly foreign manner.' The root 'exo-' gives us exodus (way out), exoskeleton (outside skeleton), exothermic (heat out), and exosphere (outer sphere). The PIE root *eghs- is the same as in ex-.
