Etymology
'anticipatedly-delivered' is a compound word formed from 'anticipatedly' and 'delivered'. 'Anticipatedly' comes from 'anticipate', which originates from Latin 'anticipare', meaning 'to take before'. 'Delivered' comes from Old French 'delivrer', meaning 'to set free'.
'Anticipatedly' evolved from 'anticipate', which was derived from Latin 'anticipare'. 'Delivered' evolved from Old French 'delivrer', which was adopted into Middle English as 'deliveren'.
Initially, 'anticipate' meant 'to take before', and 'deliver' meant 'to set free'. Over time, 'anticipatedly-delivered' came to mean 'delivered earlier than expected'.
