Morphology

regeneratively = regenerative (semi-transparent) = re + generate + ive + ly

The adverb is formed in a standard way from the adjective 'regenerative' with '-ly' and keeps the same meaning.

Etymology

Regeneratively comes from the prefix re- meaning 'again' and the verb generate meaning 'to make', the same root you see in generation and generator. So to act regeneratively is to 'make again' or 'renew' something, which fits using processes that restore energy, resources, or health.
