unintelligently

/ˌʌnɪntˈɛlɪdʒəntli/ adv

In an unintelligent manner; stupidly.

Word Origin Intelligent comes from Latin inter 'between' and legere 'to choose, read' — literally 'choosing between,' the ability to discern. Unintelligently is the opposite: acting without that discernment. The same legere root gives us collect (gather together), elect (choose out), and select (choose apart).
