Etymology
'appreciation-oriented' originates from the English word 'appreciation,' which comes from the Latin word 'appretiatio,' meaning 'to set a price on' or 'to value.' The suffix '-oriented' is derived from the Latin 'orientare,' meaning 'to arrange or align.'
'appreciation' evolved from the Latin 'appretiatio' through Old French 'apreciacion,' and eventually became the modern English word 'appreciation.' The suffix '-oriented' was added to form the compound adjective 'appreciation-oriented.'
Initially, 'appreciation' meant 'to set a price on,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'recognizing value or merit.'
