Syntaxiom

inorganically

/ˌɪnɔɹˈɡænɪkəli/ adv

In an inorganic manner.

Word Origin From Greek organon 'tool, instrument'. Organic originally meant 'serving as a tool or instrument' — in biology, organs are the body's tools. Inorganic means not derived from living organisms. The same root gives us organize (to arrange like a tool), organism (a living tool-like structure), and organ (a functional part). The PIE root *werg- means 'to work', so it's all about working parts.
