contextually
Based on surrounding conditions
Contextually means in a way that depends on or relates to context—the surrounding circumstances, words, or situation that give something meaning.
A word's definition may shift contextually: The term reads differently contextually than in isolation.
Something contextually appropriate fits its setting; something contextually irrelevant misses the point of the discussion at hand.
