unadventurously

/ʌnædvˈɛntʃɚɹəsli/ adv

In an unadventurous way.

Word Origin Adventure comes from Latin ad- 'to' and venire 'to come' — originally meaning 'something that comes to you,' like a chance event. Over time it shifted to a risky undertaking. Unadventurously means without that spirit of risk-taking. The same root venire gives us venture, advent (arrival), and convenient (coming together).
