pervasively

/pɝˈveɪsɪvli/ adv

In a pervasive manner, such that a thing is present in all parts.

Word Origin From Latin 'pervadere' — 'per' (through) + 'vadere' (to go). So 'pervade' literally means 'to go through,' to spread throughout. 'Pervasive' describes something that has spread through everything. The same root 'vadere' gives us 'invade' (go in), 'evade' (go out, escape), and 'invasion.' The breakdown per+vas+ive+ly shows the 'going through' core.
