Etymology
'customarily-shaped' originates from the word 'customarily,' which comes from the Latin word 'consuetudinarius,' meaning 'according to custom,' and 'shaped,' from the Old English 'sceapian,' meaning 'to form or create.'
'customarily' evolved from the Latin 'consuetudinarius' through Old French 'costumier,' and 'shaped' from Old English 'sceapian,' eventually forming the modern English term 'customarily-shaped.'
Initially, 'customarily' meant 'according to custom,' and 'shaped' meant 'to form or create.' The combined term 'customarily-shaped' retains the meaning of being formed according to tradition.
