measuredly
In controlled fashion
Measuredly means in a careful, deliberate, and controlled manner.
Someone who speaks measuredly chooses words with precision, neither rushing nor showing undue emotion: She responded measuredly to the accusation, refusing to be provoked.
The word suggests restraint and thoughtfulness rather than spontaneity.
