intentional distribution
Etymology
'deliberately' originates from Latin, specifically the word 'deliberatus,' where 'de-' meant 'down' and 'liberare' meant 'to weigh or balance.' 'Shared' comes from Old English 'scearu,' meaning 'a division or part.'
'deliberatus' transformed into the French word 'délibérer,' and eventually became the modern English word 'deliberate.' 'Scearu' evolved into the Middle English 'sheren,' leading to the modern English 'share.'
Initially, 'deliberate' meant 'to weigh or consider,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'intentional.' 'Share' has largely retained its original meaning of 'to divide or distribute.'
