perceptively

/pɝˈsɛptɪvli/ adv C1 ✓

In a perceptive manner.

Word Origin From Latin percipere 'to seize thoroughly, to perceive' — literally 'taking through.' Perceptively means in a way that shows keen perception. The root capere 'to take' is incredibly productive: it gives us concept (take together), accept (take to), intercept (take between), and capture. The breakdown per+cept+ive+ly shows the 'through-taking' idea.
