unmethodically

/ʌnmɛθˈɑdɪkli/ adv

In an unmethodical fashion.

Word Origin Unmethodically means without method. Method comes from Greek meta- 'after' and hodos 'way' — a way of following after something, a systematic path. The same hodos gives us odometer (way-measurer) and episode (a coming in on the way). So unmethodically is wandering off the path.

adv In an unmethodical fashion.

He arranged the books unmethodically, simply placing them wherever there was space on the shelf.
