Etymology
'after-release' originates from the combination of 'after' and 'release', where 'after' meant 'following in time' and 'release' meant 'to set free or make available'.
'after-release' evolved from the combination of the Old English 'æfter' and the Middle English 'reles', eventually becoming the modern English term 'after-release'.
Initially, it meant 'following the act of releasing', but over time it evolved to refer to the period or events following a release.
