Etymology
'aloe-blended' originates from English, specifically as a compound of the noun 'aloe' and the past participle 'blended' of the verb 'blend'; 'aloe' ultimately from Latin 'aloë' via Greek 'aloē', and 'blend' from Old Norse 'blanda' meaning 'to mix'.
'aloe-blended' formed in modern English as a hyphenated compound; 'aloe' passed into English via Latin 'aloë' and Greek 'aloē', while 'blend' entered English from Old Norse 'blanda'; these elements combined to yield the modern English word 'aloe-blended'.
Initially, it meant 'blended with aloe (as an ingredient)', and this meaning has remained stable in modern usage.
