chaotically-arranged
|cha-o-tic-al-ly-ar-ranged|
/keɪˈɒtɪkli əˈreɪndʒd/
disordered arrangement
Etymology
'chaotically-arranged' originates from the Greek word 'khaos,' meaning 'abyss' or 'void,' combined with the Latin 'arrangere,' meaning 'to arrange.'
'Khaos' transformed into the English word 'chaos,' and 'arrangere' became 'arrange' in English, leading to the modern term 'chaotically-arranged.'
Initially, 'chaos' referred to a primordial void, but over time it evolved to mean disorder, which is reflected in 'chaotically-arranged.'
