Also means

supremely

Usage Note

Squisitamente derives from squisito (exquisite, delicious) and carries the same sense of refined excellence. It can modify food contexts ('exquisitely prepared') but is just as common in abstract or intellectual contexts: squisitamente umano ('supremely human'). Note: squisito applied to food means 'delicious', not merely 'exquisite' — the adverb inherits that nuance.

Examples

"Il dolce era squisitamente preparato."

Natural Translation

The dessert was exquisitely prepared.
