'Corporate' evolved from the Latin 'corporatus' through Old French 'corporatif,' while 'oriented' came from Latin 'orientare' through Middle French 'orienter.'
Initially, 'corporate' referred to a body or group, while 'oriented' meant aligned or directed. Together, they evolved to mean focused on corporate needs.
