worrisomely

/ˈwɝisəmli/ adv

In a worrisome way.

Word Origin From Old English 'wyrgan' (to strangle, harass) — worry originally meant to strangle or choke, like a dog worrying a bone. The '-some' suffix (meaning 'tending to') turns it into 'worrisome', and '-ly' makes it an adverb. The '-some' suffix also appears in awesome, handsome, fearsome, and troublesome.
