anticipated delivery
Etymology
'expectedly-delivered' originates from the combination of 'expectedly' and 'delivered', where 'expectedly' is derived from the Latin 'expectare', meaning 'to look out for', and 'delivered' from the Old French 'delivrer', meaning 'to set free'.
'expectedly-delivered' combines the adverb 'expectedly' and the past participle 'delivered', forming a modern English adjective.
Initially, 'expectedly' meant 'in a manner that was anticipated', and 'delivered' meant 'brought to a destination'. Together, they describe something that was brought as anticipated.
