Morphology

rousingly = rousing (transparent) = rouse + ing + ly

Formed by adding the productive adverbial suffix '-ly' to the adjective 'rousing', which itself is transparently derived from 'rouse' + '-ing'.

Etymology

Rousingly comes from the verb rouse, which meant 'to wake' or 'to stir' and is the same root as arouse. So to do something rousingly is to 'wake up' people's feelings or to excite them into action.
