interestedly

/ˈɪntɝəstədli/ adv

In an interested manner; with interest.

Word Origin 'Interest' comes from Latin 'inter-' (between) and 'esse' (to be)—literally 'to be between', to be involved. Interestedly means in an interested manner. The same root gives us interesting, disinterested (impartial, not having a stake), and uninterested (not interested). The -ed suffix makes it an adjective, and -ly an adverb.
