Etymology
'frequently-delivered' is a compound word formed from 'frequently' and 'delivered'. 'Frequently' originates from Latin 'frequentia', meaning 'crowded' or 'numerous', and 'delivered' comes from Old French 'delivrer', meaning 'to set free'.
'Frequently' evolved from Latin 'frequentia' through Old French 'frequent', and 'delivered' evolved from Old French 'delivrer' to Middle English 'deliveren'.
Initially, 'frequently' meant 'crowded' or 'numerous', and 'delivered' meant 'to set free'. Over time, 'frequently-delivered' evolved to mean 'brought often'.
