Etymology
'carelessly-shipped' originates from the combination of 'careless' and 'ship', where 'careless' meant 'without care' and 'ship' meant 'to send goods'.
'careless' changed from the Old English word 'carleas' and 'ship' from the Old English 'scipian', eventually forming the modern English word 'carelessly-shipped'.
Initially, 'careless' meant 'free from care', but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'without due care'.
