Morphology

coactively = coactive (transparent) = co + active + ly

Formed from the adjective 'coactive' by adding the productive adverbial suffix '-ly', with meaning directly derived from 'co-' (together) + 'active'.

Etymology

Coactively comes from the small part co-, which means 'together', and active, which means 'doing'. So, to act coactively is to work together and do things with other people.
