'inaccurate' originates from Latin, specifically the word 'inaccuratus,' where 'in-' meant 'not' and 'accuratus' meant 'done with care.' 'Provide' originates from Latin, specifically the word 'providere,' where 'pro-' meant 'forward' and 'videre' meant 'to see.'

'inaccuratus' transformed into the French word 'inaccuré,' and eventually became the modern English word 'inaccurate' through Middle English. 'Providere' transformed into the French word 'proveer,' and eventually became the modern English word 'provide' through Middle English.

Initially, 'inaccurate' meant 'not done with care,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'not correct.' 'Provide' initially meant 'to see forward,' and this meaning has largely remained the same in modern usage.
