Usage Note
Eléctricamente is formed regularly from eléctrico + -mente. Like most Spanish adverbs in -mente, it is used in formal or technical prose; in conversation speakers often prefer the phrase de forma eléctrica. When two -mente adverbs are coordinated, Spanish drops the suffix from all but the last: mecánica y eléctricamente.
Examples
"El vehículo funciona eléctricamente."
Natural Translation
The vehicle runs electrically.
