immaturely

/ɪməˈtjʊə(ɹ)li/ adv

Giving an appearance of immaturity; childishly.

Word Origin Immature comes from in- 'not' and maturus 'ripe, timely' — literally 'not ripe.' Immaturely is the adverb. Maturus gives us mature, maturity, and premature (ripe before time). The root is related to manus 'good' and mane 'early in the morning,' so ripeness is about being timely and good.
