untouchably

/ʌntˈʌtʃəbli/ adv

In an untouchable manner.

Word Origin Built on the Latin root toccare 'to touch, strike,' with the prefix un- and suffixes -able and -ly. The idea: something so sacred or forbidden that you can't even touch it — and here, it's done in an untouchable manner. The same root gives us touchable, retouch, and the vivid touchstone (a stone used to test gold by touch).
