(India) In terms of or by means of questions.
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.
(chiefly, India) In terms of communities.
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.'
