inconsiderately

/ɪŋkənsˈɪdɚɹətli/ adv

In an inconsiderate manner; without consideration for others.

Word Origin From Latin 'considerare' — originally an astrological term meaning 'to observe the stars' (con- 'with' + sidus 'star'). To consider something was to consult the stars. Inconsiderate is 'not observing the stars' — not taking careful thought. The same root gives us consider and reconsider. The breakdown in+consider+ate+ly shows the root 'consider' from sidus. The PIE root *seid- relates to stars.
