treasonously

/ˈtɹizəˌnəsli/ adv

In a treasonous manner, or to a treasonous degree

Word Origin Treasonously comes from treason, which goes back to Latin tradere 'to hand over, betray'—literally trans- 'across' + dare 'to give'. So treason is giving something over to the enemy. The same root gives us tradition (something handed down), betray (from be- + tray, from tradere), and traitor.
