repetitiously

/ˌɹɛpəˈtɪʃəsli/ adv

In a repetitious manner.

Word Origin Repetitiously comes from repetition, from Latin repetere 'to seek again' — re- 'again' + petere 'to seek'. The root petere gives us petition, appetite, competition, and centripetal. The adverb adds -ous and -ly to the idea of doing something over and over, so repetitiously is 'in a seeking-again-and-again way'.
