In a manner involving competition; in a way that competes or rivals.
From 'competing' (present participle of 'compete') plus '-ly' (adverbial suffix). Creates an adverb describing competitive behavior or manner.
While rarely used today, 'competingly' captures a specific moment—when actions are done in direct rivalry with others, a nuance that modern 'competitively' has absorbed.
