Etymology
The term 'delayed-recovered' is a compound word formed from 'delayed' and 'recovered'. 'Delayed' originates from the Latin word 'differre', meaning 'to postpone', and 'recovered' comes from the Latin 'recuperare', meaning 'to regain'.
'Delayed' evolved from the Old French 'delaier', and 'recovered' from the Old French 'recovrer'. The combination of these words into 'delayed-recovered' is a modern English formation.
Initially, 'delayed' meant 'postponed' and 'recovered' meant 'regained'. The combined term 'delayed-recovered' retains these meanings, indicating a recovery that occurs after a delay.
