Etymology
'illogically-formed' originates from the prefix 'il-' meaning 'not' and 'logical' from Greek 'logikos' meaning 'reasoned' combined with 'formed' from Latin 'formare' meaning 'to shape'.
'illogically' evolved from the Latin 'illogicus' and 'formed' from the Latin 'formare', eventually becoming the modern English term 'illogically-formed'.
Initially, it meant 'not reasoned or shaped', but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'constructed without logical consistency'.
