Etymology
'fun-oriented' is a compound word formed from 'fun' and 'oriented'. 'Fun' originates from Middle English 'fon', meaning 'foolish or silly', and 'oriented' comes from Latin 'orientare', meaning 'to rise or to arrange'.
'Fun' evolved from the Middle English word 'fon', which meant 'foolish or silly', and 'oriented' from the Latin 'orientare', which meant 'to rise or to arrange'.
Initially, 'fun' meant 'foolish or silly', but over time it evolved to mean 'enjoyment or amusement'. 'Oriented' has largely retained its meaning of 'directed towards'.
