learnedly

In scholarly fashion

In a learned manner—with scholarly knowledge or erudition.

Someone who speaks learnedly on a subject demonstrates deep study and expertise: She wrote learnedly about Renaissance art.

The word carries a slightly formal or old-fashioned tone, sometimes used with gentle irony when the learning seems excessive or pedantic.
