'frequently-updated' originates from the combination of 'frequently' and 'updated', where 'frequently' comes from Latin 'frequentia' meaning 'crowded' and 'updated' from 'up' and 'date', meaning 'to bring up to date'.

'frequently' changed from the Latin word 'frequentia' and 'updated' from the Old English 'up' and 'date', eventually forming the modern English term 'frequently-updated'.

Initially, 'frequently' meant 'crowded' and 'updated' meant 'to bring up to date', but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'revised often'.
