Is it not? Sorry if I got it wrong, English isn't my first language.

dict.cc (my source of truth for English vocab) says it's a word: https://www.dict.cc/?s=tendentially

It's apparently a word but I'd say it's quite uncommon. I played around with google ngram viewer and had a hard time coming up with a word that is less common. But I finally came up with "astrophotographic".

E: "unsurpassingly" is way down there too

It's common in German, so I figured it wouldn't be uncommon in English. Oh well :)

It's very common in Biblical criticism (transliterated from German).
