Etymology
'haphazardly-resolved' originates from the combination of 'haphazardly' and 'resolved'. 'Haphazardly' comes from 'haphazard', which originates from the Middle English 'hap' meaning 'chance' and 'hazard' meaning 'risk'. 'Resolved' comes from the Latin 'resolvere', where 're-' meant 'again' and 'solvere' meant 'to loosen'.
'Haphazardly' evolved from the Middle English 'hap' and 'hazard', while 'resolved' evolved from the Latin 'resolvere'. The combination of these words into 'haphazardly-resolved' is a modern English construct.
Initially, 'haphazard' meant 'by chance' and 'resolved' meant 'to loosen'. Over time, 'haphazardly-resolved' evolved to mean 'resolved without planning'.
