'inaccurately-adjusted' originates from the combination of 'inaccurate' and 'adjusted'. 'Inaccurate' comes from Latin 'inaccuratus', where 'in-' meant 'not' and 'accuratus' meant 'done with care'. 'Adjusted' comes from Latin 'adjuxtare', where 'ad-' meant 'to' and 'juxtare' meant 'to bring near'.

'inaccurate' changed from the Latin word 'inaccuratus' and 'adjusted' from 'adjuxtare', eventually forming the modern English term 'inaccurately-adjusted'.

Initially, 'inaccurate' meant 'not done with care', and 'adjusted' meant 'brought near'. Over time, they evolved to mean 'not precisely calibrated'.
