apropiadamente

/apɾoˌpjadaˈmente/ · B2 · adv

appropriately

✅🎩 apropiadamente = apropiada (appropriate) + mente (-ly), like English appropriate + ly

Spanish builds adverbs by adding -mente to the feminine adjective: apropiada + mente. It shares its Latin root proprius (one's own) with English appropriate and property, so it means in a way that is proper to the situation.
