Etymology
'inadvertently-executed' originates from the combination of 'inadvertently' and 'executed'. 'Inadvertently' comes from Latin 'inadvertentem', meaning 'unintentional', and 'executed' from Latin 'executus', meaning 'carried out'.
'inadvertently-executed' combines the words 'inadvertently' and 'executed', which have been used in English since the 16th and 15th centuries, respectively.
Initially, 'inadvertently' meant 'unintentionally', and 'executed' meant 'carried out'. The combined term retains these meanings, referring to actions done unintentionally.
