metrically

/ˈmɛtɹɪkəɫi/ adv

In a metrical manner.

Word Origin From Greek metron 'measure.' Metrically means in terms of meter or measurement. The root metron gives us meter, metric, metronome, symmetry, diameter, perimeter, thermometer, and barometer. The PIE root *meh₁- 'to measure' is the same as in measurably. So metrically is about measuring rhythm or distance.
