Morphology
correspondingly = corresponding (transparent) = correspond + ing + ly
Formation from the adjective 'corresponding' plus the productive adverbial suffix '-ly' yields the expected meaning 'in a corresponding way'.
Etymology
Correspondingly comes from parts that mean 'together', cor-, and 'to answer', respondere, the same root as respond and response, so imagine two things 'answering' each other. So correspondingly means 'in a matching or directly related way'.
