rhythmically

/ˈɹɪðmɪkɫi/ adv

In a rhythmical manner.

Word Origin 'Rhythmically' means in a rhythmic way — with a steady beat. It comes from Greek 'rhythmos', meaning measured flow or proportion, from PIE *sreu- (to flow). So rhythm is literally a flowing movement. The same root gives us 'rhyme' (originally the same word) and 'arrhythmia' (without rhythm). The breakdown rhythm+ic+al+ly shows how we build the adverb. The PIE root *sreu- also gives us 'stream' and 'rheostat.'
