Etymology
'contraction-focused' originates from the combination of 'contraction' and 'focused', where 'contraction' comes from Latin 'contractio', meaning 'a drawing together', and 'focused' from Latin 'focus', meaning 'hearth' or 'center'.
'contraction' evolved from the Latin 'contractio' through Old French 'contraction', and 'focused' from Latin 'focus' through Middle English 'focussed'.
Initially, 'contraction' meant 'a drawing together', and 'focused' meant 'centered on a point'. Over time, 'contraction-focused' evolved to mean 'emphasizing the process of contraction'.
