Etymology
'distinctively-presented' originates from the combination of 'distinctive' and 'presented'. 'Distinctive' comes from Latin 'distinctus', meaning 'distinguished', and 'presented' from Latin 'praesentare', meaning 'to place before'.
'distinctus' transformed into the Old French 'distinctif', and 'praesentare' became the Old French 'presenter', eventually forming the modern English 'distinctively-presented'.
Initially, 'distinctive' meant 'distinguished or separate', and 'presented' meant 'to place before'. Over time, 'distinctively-presented' evolved to mean 'presented in a unique or recognizable manner'.
