unfoundedly

/ənˈfaʊndɪdli/ adv

In an unfounded way; without basis.

Word Origin Found comes from Latin fundus 'bottom, foundation' — so something founded has a solid base. Unfounded means without foundation, baseless. Unfoundedly is the adverb. The same root fundus gives us foundation, fund (originally a bottom or stock of money), fundamental, and profound (deep, literally 'forward-bottom'). So unfoundedly means in a manner lacking a solid bottom.
