'faultily-restored' originates from the combination of 'faultily,' derived from 'fault,' and 'restored,' from the Latin 'restaurare,' meaning 'to renew or repair.'

'Faultily' evolved from the Old French 'faute,' meaning 'mistake,' and 'restored' from the Latin 'restaurare,' eventually forming the modern English term 'faultily-restored.'

Initially, 'faultily' meant 'in a faulty manner,' and 'restored' meant 'brought back to a former condition.' Together, they describe something restored imperfectly.
