Etymology
'haphazardly-evaluated' originates from the combination of 'haphazardly' and 'evaluate'. 'Haphazardly' comes from 'hap' meaning 'chance' and 'hazard' meaning 'risk', while 'evaluate' comes from Latin 'evaluare', where 'e-' meant 'out' and 'valere' meant 'to be strong'.
'Haphazardly' evolved from Middle English 'hap' and 'hazard', while 'evaluate' transformed from Latin 'evaluare' to the modern English 'evaluate'.
Initially, 'haphazardly' meant 'by chance', and 'evaluate' meant 'to assess'. Over time, 'haphazardly-evaluated' came to mean 'assessed in a random manner'.
