focused direction
Etymology
'consistently-oriented' originates from the combination of 'consistent' and 'oriented'. 'Consistent' comes from Latin 'consistere', meaning 'to stand firm', and 'oriented' is derived from 'orient', which comes from Latin 'orientem', meaning 'rising' or 'east'.
'Consistent' evolved from the Latin 'consistere' through Old French 'consister', and 'oriented' evolved from Latin 'orientem' through Old French 'orienter'.
Initially, 'consistent' meant 'standing firm', and 'oriented' meant 'rising'. Over time, they evolved to mean 'unchanging' and 'directed', respectively.
