Etymology
'accurately' originates from Latin, specifically the word 'accuratus,' where 'ad-' meant 'to' and 'cura' meant 'care.' 'deliver' originates from Old French, specifically the word 'delivrer,' where 'de-' meant 'away' and 'livrer' meant 'to free.'
'accuratus' transformed into the Middle English word 'accurate,' and eventually became the modern English word 'accurate.' 'delivrer' transformed into the Middle English word 'deliveren,' and eventually became the modern English word 'deliver.'
Initially, 'accurate' meant 'done with care,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'precise.' 'Deliver' initially meant 'to set free,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'to bring or transport.'
