Morphology
noncontingently = noncontingent (transparent) = non + contingent + ly
Formed from the adjective 'noncontingent' with the regular adverbial suffix '-ly', so the meaning is directly derived from 'non' + 'contingent'.
Etymology
Noncontingently is built from non- 'not' and contingent, which comes from an old root meaning 'to touch' and appears in familiar words like contact. So, noncontingently means 'not depending on any condition', that is, happening the same way no matter the situation.
