Etymology
'emotionally-shaped' originates from the combination of 'emotionally' and 'shaped', where 'emotionally' is derived from 'emotion', meaning 'a strong feeling', and 'shaped' from 'shape', meaning 'to form or mold'.
'Emotionally' evolved from the Latin word 'emotio', meaning 'a moving, stirring', and 'shaped' from the Old English 'sceapian', meaning 'to create, form'.
Initially, 'emotionally' meant 'in a manner related to emotions', and 'shaped' meant 'formed'. Together, they evolved to mean 'formed by emotions'.
