sent traditionally
Etymology
'conventionally-sent' originates from the word 'convention,' which comes from Latin 'conventio,' meaning 'a coming together.' The suffix '-ally' indicates the manner of action, and 'sent' is derived from the Latin 'sentire,' meaning 'to feel or perceive.'
'convention' evolved from the Latin 'conventio' through Old French 'convention,' and 'sent' evolved from Latin 'sentire' through Old French 'sentir.'
Initially, 'convention' referred to a formal meeting or assembly, but over time it evolved to mean established norms or practices. 'Sent' has largely retained its meaning of 'dispatched or transmitted.'
