Etymology
'commercially-produced' originates from the combination of 'commercial' and 'produce', where 'commercial' is derived from Latin 'commercium', meaning 'trade', and 'produce' from Latin 'producere', meaning 'to bring forth'.
'commercial' evolved from the Latin 'commercium' through Old French 'comercial', and 'produce' from Latin 'producere' through Middle English 'producen'.
Initially, 'commercial' meant 'pertaining to trade', and 'produce' meant 'to bring forth', evolving into the modern sense of 'manufactured for sale'.
