Morphology
synchronically = synchronic (transparent) = syn + chron + ic + al + ly
Formed by standard adverbial suffixation from 'synchronic'; the sense 'occurring at the same time' is predictable from the base (though 'synchronously' is a close synonym).
Etymology
Synchronically comes from the Greek parts syn- 'together' and chronos 'time', the same parts in synchronize. So to do something 'synchronically' is to have it happen at the same time, like dancers moving together or clocks chiming together.
