Etymology
Etymology Information

'consistently-located' originates from the combination of 'consistent' and 'located'. 'Consistent' comes from Latin 'consistere', meaning 'to stand firm', and 'located' comes from Latin 'locare', meaning 'to place'.

Historical Evolution

'Consistere' transformed into the Old French 'consister', and eventually became the modern English word 'consistent'. 'Locare' transformed into the Old French 'locer', and eventually became the modern English word 'locate'.

Meaning Changes

Initially, 'consistent' meant 'standing firm', but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'unchanging'. 'Locate' originally meant 'to place', which remains largely the same in modern usage.
