Etymology
'foreseeably-led' originates from the combination of 'foreseeably' and 'lead', where 'foreseeably' is derived from 'foresee', meaning 'to see or know beforehand', and 'lead', meaning 'to guide or direct'.
'foreseeably' evolved from the Old English 'foreseon', and 'lead' from the Old English 'lædan', eventually forming the modern English compound 'foreseeably-led'.
Initially, 'foreseeably' meant 'in a manner that can be foreseen', and 'lead' meant 'to guide'. Together, they imply leading in a predictable manner.
