Understanding "Uncommensurate" Growth

"Uncommensurate" is an adjective used to describe two things that cannot be compared directly because they are not on the same scale or have different units. For example, you cannot compare the length of a pencil to the height of a skyscraper because they are measured in different units (centimeters and meters) and are not commensurate.

In the context of your question, "uncommensurately" is an adverb form of "uncommensurate" that modifies the verb "grow". It means that the growth of one thing cannot be compared directly to the growth of another thing because they are not on the same scale or have different units.

For example, you might say that a child's height grows uncommensurately with their age, meaning that their height increases at a much faster rate than their age would suggest.
