immaterially

/ˌɪməˈtɪɹiəɫli/ adv

In an immaterial manner.

Word Origin Immaterial comes from in- 'not' and materia 'matter, substance' — literally 'not of matter.' Immaterially means in a way that doesn't involve physical substance. Materia originally meant 'timber, building material,' from mater 'mother' (as the source). It gives us material, materialism, and maternal. So immaterial things are not made of the stuff of the physical world.
