Etymology
'globally-accepted' originates from the combination of 'global' and 'accept,' where 'global' means 'worldwide' and 'accept' means 'to receive or agree to.'
'globally-accepted' evolved from the combination of 'global' and 'accept,' which were used separately in Middle English and eventually combined in modern English.
Initially, 'accept' meant 'to receive willingly,' and 'global' meant 'pertaining to the whole world.' Together, they evolved to mean 'recognized worldwide.'
