New word Relatedly? Wed Oct 04, 2006 11:44 am  New word Relatedly?
 

Hi

Relatedly, certain questions will arise….
(taken from a technical Smile book)

Does that relatedly actually exist? (and in usage)

Dictionaries are very careful and rather vague about it. And make me even more doubtful Smile

MS Word (hi, Amy Smile) refuses it and busily offers two variants of substitution:
Elatedly Shocked
Belatedly Shocked
Smile

Mr. Goodle supposes repeatedly Smile

Hi Tamara

Technically speaking, relatedly is a valid word.
But I'd say your example is pretty unusual. Laughing

Techies... Wink

But, your sentence must have come from some very extra special techies seeing as even the Microsoft people apparently don't use it (i.e., didn't include it in MS Word). Laughing

Hi Tamara,

New word perhaps? As an alternative to related to that? Kind of like it, though. Perhaps we should air it on the forums.
