'Sabbath-linked' originates from the word 'Sabbath,' which comes from the Hebrew word 'Shabbat,' meaning 'rest' or 'cessation.' The suffix '-linked' is derived from the Old English 'hlinc,' meaning 'to join or connect.'

'Sabbath' evolved from the Hebrew 'Shabbat' through Greek 'Sabbaton' and Latin 'Sabbatum,' eventually becoming the English 'Sabbath.' The word 'linked' has remained relatively unchanged from its Old English origins.

Initially, 'Sabbath' meant 'a day of rest,' and 'linked' meant 'connected.' Together, 'Sabbath-linked' has maintained its meaning of being associated with the Sabbath.
