invulnerably

/ɪnvˈʌlnɚɹəbli/ adv

In an invulnerable manner.

Word Origin From Latin vulnus 'wound' — so vulnerable literally means 'able to be wounded.' Add the prefix in- 'not' and you get invulnerable: not woundable. The breakdown in+vulner+able makes it clear: not + wound + able. Invulnerably is the adverb. The same root vulnus gives us vulnerability and even the rare word vulnerary (a remedy for wounds).
