Root Explanation

Immethodically → It is formed from "im-" (meaning not) and "methodical" (from Greek "methodos", meaning a way or path). The word describes an approach that is not systematic or orderly.

Memory Tip

Think of 'not' ('im-') following a 'method' ('methodical') — this helps you remember that 'immethodically' means doing something without a clear system.
