Etymology
Etymology Information

'conventionally-displayed' originates from the combination of 'conventionally' and 'displayed', where 'conventionally' is derived from 'convention', meaning 'a way in which something is usually done', and 'displayed' is the past participle of 'display', meaning 'to show or exhibit'.

Historical Evolution

'conventionally' evolved from the Latin word 'conventionem', meaning 'a meeting or assembly', and 'displayed' from the Old French 'despleier', meaning 'to unfold'.

Meaning Changes

Initially, 'conventionally' meant 'according to a meeting or assembly', but over time it evolved to mean 'according to traditional standards'. 'Displayed' has largely retained its original meaning of 'to show or exhibit'.
