Etymology: "Omissively" is a straightforward formation: it combines "omissive," an adjective meaning inclined to leave things out, with the adverbial suffix "-ly," which turns an adjective into a description of how an action is carried out. The result describes doing something in an omissive way, that is, leaving out what should have been included. The adjective beneath it, "omissive," is built on the same Latin root as "omit," which goes back to "omittere," meaning to let go or leave aside. The "-ive" ending marks a tendency or quality, so "omissive" describes something prone to omission. The adverb therefore carries that sense of leaving out into the manner of an action, most often in speech or writing where key details go missing.
