Etymology
'ignorance-centered' originates from the combination of 'ignorance' and 'centered', where 'ignorance' comes from Latin 'ignorantia', meaning 'lack of knowledge', and 'centered' from Latin 'centrum', meaning 'center'.
'ignorantia' transformed into the Old French word 'ignorance', and eventually became the modern English word 'ignorance'. 'Centrum' transformed into the Old French word 'centre', and eventually became the modern English word 'centered'.
Initially, 'ignorance' meant 'lack of knowledge', and 'centered' meant 'placed in the center'. Together, they evolved to mean 'focused on a lack of knowledge'.
