Usage Note
Históricamente is formed from the adjective histórico + the adverbial suffix -mente, which always attaches to the feminine adjective form. As with most long adverbs in -mente, it is sometimes replaced by desde el punto de vista histórico in formal writing for stylistic variety. It modifies verbs, adjectives, and entire clauses.
