grievingly

/ˈɡɹivɪŋli/ adv

In a grieving manner.

Word Origin Grieve comes from Latin gravis, meaning 'heavy' — so grief is literally a heaviness you carry. That's why we say 'a heavy heart'. The same root gives us gravity, aggravate (make heavier), and grave (serious). Grievingly means doing something in a heavy-hearted way.
