unintentionally enhanced
Etymology
'inadvertently-augmented' originates from the combination of 'inadvertently' and 'augmented'. 'Inadvertently' comes from Latin 'inadvertentem', meaning 'not turning the mind to', and 'augmented' from Latin 'augmentare', meaning 'to increase'.
'inadvertently' changed from the Latin word 'inadvertentem' and 'augmented' from 'augmentare', eventually forming the modern English compound word 'inadvertently-augmented'.
Initially, 'inadvertently' meant 'not turning the mind to', and 'augmented' meant 'to increase'. Together, they evolved to mean 'enhanced or increased unintentionally'.
