earthily
In rustic manner
In a manner that is unrefined, direct, or connected to basic physical realities.
Someone who speaks earthily uses blunt, unpretentious language, often about bodily functions or sexuality: She laughed earthily at the crude joke.
The word suggests groundedness and lack of pretension rather than vulgarity, though it can imply coarseness.
