/ˈfriːkwəntli kənˈstrʌktɪd/
often built
Etymology
'frequently' originates from Latin, specifically the word 'frequentia,' where 'frequent-' meant 'crowded or repeated.' 'Constructed' originates from Latin, specifically the word 'constructus,' where 'con-' meant 'together' and 'struere' meant 'to build.'
'frequentia' transformed into the Old French word 'frequent,' and eventually became the modern English word 'frequent.' 'Constructus' transformed into the Old French word 'construire,' and eventually became the modern English word 'construct.'
Initially, 'frequent' meant 'crowded or repeated,' and 'construct' meant 'to build together.' Over time, 'frequently-constructed' evolved to mean 'built or assembled often.'
