Etymology
'hastily-revised' originates from the combination of 'hastily,' derived from the Old English 'hæstlice,' meaning 'in a hurried manner,' and 'revised,' from the Latin 'revisere,' meaning 'to look at again.'
'hastily' changed from the Old English 'hæstlice' to the modern English 'hastily,' and 'revised' evolved from the Latin 'revisere' to the modern English 'revised.'
Initially, 'hastily' meant 'in a hurried manner,' and 'revised' meant 'to look at again.' Over time, 'hastily-revised' came to mean 'modified quickly, often with errors.'
