chapterwise

An Indian English adverb or adjective meaning by topic, one topic at a time, or relating to a particular topic. The '-wise' suffix construction is used productively in Indian English to create adverbials that standard British or American English might express differently. Widely used in academic, professional, and educational contexts in India.

An Indian English adverb meaning 'by subject' or 'according to subject' — used to organise information, marks, or schedules into subject-specific categories. The '-wise' suffix is highly productive in Indian English (cf. 'subjectwise marks,' 'districtwise data') and appears in official, educational, and bureaucratic contexts.

An Indian English adverb meaning 'in terms of questions' or 'question by question,' formed using the highly productive '-wise' suffix common in South Asian English. Typically used in educational contexts — exam debriefs, study sessions, or academic discussions — where someone analyzes performance or content on a per-question basis. While '-wise' compounds are used in standard English (e.g., 'otherwise,' 'likewise'), Indian English extends this pattern more freely to create ad-hoc adverbs like 'questionwise,' 'subjectwise,' or 'topicwise.'

Classwise is an adverb used primarily in Indian English to mean 'in terms of class' or 'sorted by class.' You'd hear it in academic or administrative contexts — classwise results, classwise attendance, classwise seating arrangements. It follows the same suffix pattern as 'subjectwise' or 'datewise,' a productive word-formation habit in South Asian English that efficiently turns nouns into organizational adverbs. Outside of the subcontinent it sounds unusual, but within its context it's perfectly natural and widely understood.
