Usage Note

Responsabilmente is formed from responsabile (responsible) + -mente. It qualifies an action carried out with awareness of one's duties and the consequences: agire responsabilmente (to act responsibly). The stress on the base adjective (-SAH-) is preserved in the adverb, which simply adds the unstressed suffix.
