retentively
In remembering fashion
In a manner that holds or keeps things, especially information in memory.
Someone who listens retentively absorbs and remembers what they hear: She studied retentively, rarely needing to review material twice.
The word can also describe physical holding: The soil retentively held moisture through the dry season.
