Morphology
derogatorily = derogatory (transparent) = derogate + ory + ly
The adverb is formed by the regular addition of -ly to the adjective 'derogatory', making the meaning directly predictable from the adjective.
Etymology
Derogatorily comes from Latin parts de- 'away' and rogare 'to ask', and it once carried the idea of 'taking away' someone's right or honour. So to speak derogatorily is to speak in a way that 'takes away' or lowers someone's respect.
