'expectedly-positioned' originates from the combination of 'expectedly' and 'positioned', where 'expectedly' is derived from 'expect', meaning 'to look forward to', and 'positioned' from 'position', meaning 'to place or arrange'.

'expectedly-positioned' is a modern compound adjective formed by combining the adverb 'expectedly' with the past participle 'positioned'.

Initially, it meant 'placed in a position that was anticipated', and this meaning has largely remained the same in modern usage.
