Morphology

bijectively = bijective (semi-transparent) = bi + ject + ive + ly

Forming an adverb by adding the productive suffix '-ly' to the adjective 'bijective' is a regular and predictable morphological process.

Etymology

Bijectively comes from the parts bi- meaning 'two' and -ject meaning 'to throw', a root you can also see in simple words like project or inject. Imagine 'throwing' items between two groups so each item gets exactly one partner; that's why bijectively means 'one-to-one' matching between sets.
