disorderly execution
Etymology
'chaotically-executed' originates from the combination of 'chaotic' and 'execute'. 'Chaotic' comes from the Greek word 'khaos', meaning 'abyss' or 'void', and 'execute' comes from the Latin 'executus', meaning 'to carry out'.
'Chaotic' evolved from the Greek 'khaos' through Latin and Old French, while 'execute' transformed from Latin 'executus' through Old French 'executer', eventually forming the modern English 'execute'.
Initially, 'chaotic' meant 'void' or 'abyss', but over time it evolved to mean 'disorderly'. 'Execute' has largely retained its meaning of 'to carry out'.
