Etymology: "Orgasmically" is simply "orgasmic" with the adverbial ending "-ally" attached. "Orgasmic" itself is formed from "orgasm", which comes from Greek "orgasmos", meaning an excited or swollen state, derived from "orgân", to swell or be full of moisture. The adjective ending "-ic" came from Greek, while the "-al" and "-ly" pieces of "-ally" trace back through Old French and Latin to Old English, where "-līce" turned adjectives into manner adverbs. Combining these pieces produces a word meaning "in an orgasmic manner," used figuratively for "with intense pleasure."

Synonyms: ecstatically, intensely
