intentional restoration
Etymology
'deliberately-recovered' originates from the combination of 'deliberately,' meaning 'consciously and intentionally,' and 'recovered,' meaning 'regained or restored.'
The term 'deliberately-recovered' combines the adverb 'deliberately' from Middle English 'deliberat' and the verb 'recovered' from Old French 'recovrer.'
Initially, 'deliberately' meant 'with careful consideration,' and 'recovered' meant 'to regain possession.' The combined term maintains these meanings.
