rhetorically
This adverb describes communication intended to produce a specific effect or to make a point rather than to convey literal information. It is most frequently used to describe a question that does not require an answer, where the answer is implied or obvious, serving to emphasize a point or provoke thought.
In a more critical or negative sense, it can describe speech that is overly ornate, artificial, or designed to manipulate an audience through style rather than substance. In this context, it suggests a gap between the polished delivery of a message and the actual truth or sincerity of the speaker.
