Etymology
'automatically-connected' originates from the combination of 'automatic' and 'connect,' where 'automatic' comes from Greek 'automatos' meaning 'self-moving' and 'connect' from Latin 'connectere' meaning 'to bind together.'
'automatically-connected' evolved from the need to describe systems that link without human intervention, combining 'automatic' and 'connect' in modern English.
Initially, 'automatic' meant 'self-moving,' and 'connect' meant 'to bind together.' Over time, the phrase 'automatically-connected' evolved to describe systems that link without manual input.
