Morphology

pervertedly = perverted (transparent) = pervert + ed + ly

Adverb formed regularly from the adjective 'perverted' with the productive suffix '-ly'.

Etymology

The word pervertedly comes from per- 'completely' and vert 'to turn', so it originally meant 'to turn away' from what is right. That's why pervertedly can describe actions that are twisted, morally wrong, or far from what people accept.
