inquiringly
Adverb

This adverb describes a non-verbal communication style where a person's expression, gaze, or tone conveys a question without necessarily speaking. It often implies a sense of curiosity, suspicion, or a request for clarification, typically manifesting as a raised eyebrow or a tilted head.

Because it describes a manner of action, it is most frequently paired with verbs of perception or communication, such as look, glance, or tilt. It carries a neutral to slightly formal register and is common in narrative prose to describe character interactions.
