Etymology
'expectedly-moving' originates from the combination of 'expectedly' and 'moving'. 'Expectedly' comes from the Latin 'expectare', meaning 'to look out for', and 'moving' from the Latin 'movere', meaning 'to move'.
'Expectedly' evolved from the Old French 'expecter', and 'moving' from the Old French 'movoir'.
Initially, 'expectedly' meant 'in a manner that is looked out for', and 'moving' meant 'in motion'. Together, they describe something moving as anticipated.
