Etymology
The word 'frequently-reassigned' is a compound formed from 'frequently' (from Latin 'frequentia', meaning 'a crowd, multitude, frequency') and 'reassigned' (from 'assign', from Latin 'assignare', meaning 'to mark out, allot').
'Frequently' and 'reassigned' were combined in modern English to form the compound adjective 'frequently-reassigned', used especially in technical or organizational contexts.
Originally, 'frequently' and 'reassigned' had their own meanings, but together they now describe something that is reassigned many times.
