Etymology
'domestic-focused' originates from the English word 'domestic,' which comes from the Latin 'domesticus,' meaning 'of the home,' and 'focus,' from Latin 'focus,' meaning 'hearth' or 'center.'
'domestic' evolved from the Latin 'domesticus' through Old French 'domestique' into Middle English 'domestik,' while 'focus' remained largely unchanged from its Latin origin.
Initially, 'domestic' meant 'of the home,' and 'focus' meant 'center.' Together, they evolved to mean 'centered on domestic matters.'
