Etymology
'commodity-focused' originates from the English word 'commodity,' which comes from the Latin word 'commoditas,' meaning 'convenience or advantage,' and 'focused,' from the Latin 'focus,' meaning 'hearth or fireplace.'
'commodity' evolved from the Old French 'commodité,' and 'focused' from the Latin 'focusus,' eventually forming the modern English term 'commodity-focused.'
Initially, 'commodity' meant 'convenience or advantage,' but over time it evolved to refer to goods or products, while 'focused' retained its meaning of 'concentrated or directed attention.'
