syllabically

/səˈɫæbɪkəli/ adv

In terms of syllables.

Word Origin Syllabically comes from 'syllabic' + '-al' + '-ly.' The root is Greek 'syllabē' meaning 'syllable,' literally 'something taken together' (syn- 'together' + lambanein 'to take'). So a syllable is a group of sounds taken together. The same root 'lambanein' gives us 'epilepsy' (seizure) and 'catalepsy' (a seizing down). So syllabically means in terms of syllables.
