• Adverbe rare et littéraire signifiant 'de manière taciturne', c'est-à-dire silencieusement, avec réserve et sans parler volontiers. S'emploie surtout dans un registre soutenu ou archaïque.

An archaic and rarely used adverb meaning 'in a taciturn manner' or 'silently and reservedly.' It is derived from the adjective 'taciturn' (habitually silent or uncommunicative) but has largely fallen out of modern usage, replaced by phrases like 'in a taciturn way' or simply 'silently.'
