Etymology
'enthusiastically-crafted' originates from the combination of 'enthusiastically' and 'crafted'. 'Enthusiastically' comes from the Greek word 'enthousiasmos', meaning 'inspired or possessed by a god', and 'crafted' is derived from the Old English 'cræft', meaning 'skill or art'.
'Enthusiastically' evolved from the Greek 'enthousiasmos' through Latin 'enthusiasmus' and Old French 'enthousiasme', while 'crafted' evolved from Old English 'cræft'.
Initially, 'enthusiastically' meant 'inspired by a divine force', but over time it evolved to mean 'with great excitement or interest'. 'Crafted' has largely retained its original meaning of 'skillfully made'.
