Etymology
'deliberately-refreshed' originates from the combination of 'deliberately' and 'refreshed', where 'deliberately' means 'intentionally' and 'refreshed' means 'made new or revitalized'.
The term 'deliberately-refreshed' combines the adverb 'deliberately' from Middle English 'deliberat' and the past participle 'refreshed' from Old French 'refreschir'.
Initially, 'deliberately' meant 'with careful consideration', and 'refreshed' meant 'made fresh again'. Together, they evolved to mean 'intentionally revitalized'.
