indigestibly

/ˌɪndɪdʒˈɛstᵻbli/ adv

Such that it cannot be digested.

Word Origin Indigestibly comes from indigestible, which is built on digest. Digest traces to Latin 'digestus,' from 'dis-' (apart) and 'gerere' (to carry) — literally 'to carry apart, separate.' So indigestible means 'not able to be broken down.' The gerere root also gives us gesture, suggest, and exaggerate — all about carrying or bearing.
