/dɪˈpɛndəbli prəˈdjuːst/
reliably created
Etymology
'dependably' originates from 'depend,' which comes from Latin, specifically the word 'dependere,' where 'de-' meant 'from' and 'pendere' meant 'to hang.' 'Produced' comes from Latin 'producere,' where 'pro-' meant 'forward' and 'ducere' meant 'to lead.'
'dependere' transformed into the Old French word 'dependre,' and eventually became the modern English word 'depend.' 'Producere' transformed into the Old French word 'produire,' and eventually became the modern English word 'produce.'
Initially, 'depend' meant 'to hang down,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'to rely on.' 'Produce' initially meant 'to lead forward,' but now it means 'to create or manufacture.'
