Etymology
'conventionally-performed' originates from the word 'convention,' which comes from Latin 'conventio,' meaning 'a coming together,' and 'perform,' from Old French 'parfornir,' meaning 'to complete or accomplish.'
'convention' evolved from Latin 'conventio' to Old French 'convention,' and 'perform' from Old French 'parfornir' to Middle English 'performen,' eventually forming the modern English term 'conventionally-performed.'
Initially, 'convention' meant 'a coming together,' and 'perform' meant 'to complete,' but over time, 'conventionally-performed' evolved to mean 'executed in a traditional manner.'
