'carefully-fixed' originates from the combination of 'carefully,' derived from 'care,' and 'fixed,' from the Latin 'fixus,' meaning 'fastened.'

'carefully' evolved from the Old English 'carful,' meaning 'full of care,' and 'fixed' from the Latin 'fixus,' which became 'fix' in Middle English.

Initially, 'carefully-fixed' meant 'fastened with care,' but now it implies a broader sense of meticulous arrangement.
