provincially

/pɹəˈvɪnʃəɫi/ adv

In a provincial way.

Word Origin From Latin 'pro' (before) + 'vincere' (to conquer) — a province was originally a territory conquered before others, a sphere of authority. So 'provincial' means relating to a province, and '-ly' makes it an adverb. The root 'vincere' gives us convince, convict, evince, and invincible.
