voluptuously

/vəˈɫəptʃəwəsli/ adv

In a voluptuous manner.

Word Origin From Latin voluptas 'pleasure, delight' — voluptuously means 'in a pleasure-filled, sensual manner.' The root is related to velle 'to wish' (PIE *wel-), so pleasure is what you wish for. The same root gives us welcome (well-come, a wished-for arrival). So voluptuously is about indulging in what you desire.
