successively

/səkˈsɛsɪvɫi/ adv

In a serial or successive manner; one following another.

Word Origin Success comes from Latin sub- 'under, after' and cedere 'to go' — literally 'to go after, to follow'. So successively means 'in a following manner', one thing going after another. The root cedere is a superstar: proceed (go forward), exceed (go out beyond), access (go to), recess (go back), concede (go with, yield), and many more. The idea of 'going' is central to all these words.

adv In a serial or successive manner; one following another.
