noiselessly

/ˈnɔɪzləsli/ adv

In a quiet manner, without any noise.

Word Origin Noise comes from Latin nausea 'seasickness' — originally meaning 'disgust, uproar,' and later any loud sound. Noiselessly means 'without noise,' with the Old English suffix -less 'lacking.' The same root gives us noisy and noisemaker. So noiselessly is literally 'in a manner lacking uproar,' a quiet way.

adv In a quiet manner, without any noise.
