intentional resolve
Etymology
'deliberately-determined' originates from the combination of 'deliberate' and 'determine', where 'deliberate' comes from Latin 'deliberatus', meaning 'considered carefully', and 'determine' from Latin 'determinare', meaning 'to set bounds'.
'deliberate' changed from the Latin word 'deliberatus' and 'determine' from 'determinare', eventually forming the modern English compound 'deliberately-determined'.
Initially, 'deliberate' meant 'considered carefully' and 'determine' meant 'to set bounds', but over time they evolved into the current meaning of 'conscious and intentional resolve'.
