Prijadno is the the neuter (/ adverbial) form of the adjective I mentioned,
prijatan. It's from preverb pri-, verbal root *-je~-, participial suffix
-tU, adjectival suffix -nU -> pri-je~-tU-nU > prijat&n, prijatn- (e.g.
Polish has przyjemny in the same function, from *pri-jemU-nU)

The verb *pri-jem-ti, *pri-nIm-a-ti means something like "accept, receive":
preverb pri- "towards, into", verbal root *em- "to take" (cf. English "to
take in", Latin ad-cap-ere > accipere, acceptare).
