Etymology
'accurately-positioned' originates from the combination of 'accurate' and 'positioned', where 'accurate' comes from Latin 'accuratus', meaning 'done with care', and 'positioned' is derived from Latin 'positio', meaning 'placement'.
'accurate' changed from the Latin word 'accuratus' and 'positioned' from 'positio', eventually forming the modern English term 'accurately-positioned'.
Initially, 'accurate' meant 'done with care', and 'positioned' meant 'placement', evolving into the current meaning of 'placed or arranged in a precise location'.
