[ "Tortuously" ]
1: Tortuously (adverb):
In a manner that is so full of misspellings, typos, and grammatical errors that it would give a spelling bee champion a headache. Example: "The report that my coworker submitted was so tortuously written that I had to reread it several times just to understand what they were trying to say."
* e.g., ... I tried to take the shortcut through the park, but ended up getting lost in a tortuously tangled web of pedestrian paths. It was like a giant maze made out of cement and grass. I must have walked in circles for an hour before I finally found my way back to the main road. Talk about a frustratingly tortuous experience!
