Etymology
'correctly-partitioned' originates from the combination of 'correctly' and 'partitioned', where 'correctly' is derived from the Latin 'correctus', meaning 'set right', and 'partitioned' from the Latin 'partitio', meaning 'division'.
'correctly' changed from the Old French word 'correct', and 'partitioned' evolved from the Old French 'particion', eventually becoming the modern English word 'correctly-partitioned'.
Initially, 'correctly' meant 'in a right manner', and 'partitioned' meant 'divided into parts'. The combined term retains this meaning in modern usage.
