Etymology: Etymology tree English scandalous Middle English -ly English -ly English scandalously From scandalous + -ly.

  1. In a scandalous manner.

    “She was seen running for her life scandalously underclad.”

    “English is scandalously lacking in politically and linguistically correct antonyms of this sort. The Queen can create the Duchess of Cambridge, so surely I can create the much-needed expressions "cisgress" (be a good boy), "cisvestite" (bloke wearing trousers), "cisaction" (no deal), and "cisom" (something that isn't a lintel). Anyone who doesn't disagree is a transsy.”
