expectedly guided
Etymology
'anticipatedly-directed' originates from the combination of 'anticipatedly' and 'directed'. 'Anticipatedly' comes from 'anticipate', which originates from Latin 'anticipare', meaning 'to take before'. 'Directed' comes from 'direct', which originates from Latin 'directus', meaning 'straight, direct'.
'Anticipatedly' evolved from the Latin 'anticipare' through Middle English 'anticipaten', and 'directed' evolved from Latin 'directus' through Old French 'directer'.
Initially, 'anticipatedly' meant 'to take before', and 'directed' meant 'straight'. Over time, they evolved to mean 'expectedly guided'.
