Etymology
'inconsistently-associated' originates from the combination of 'inconsistent' and 'associate', where 'inconsistent' comes from Latin 'inconsistens', meaning 'not standing firm', and 'associate' from Latin 'associatus', meaning 'joined with'.
'inconsistently-associated' evolved from the combination of 'inconsistent' and 'associate', which were used separately in Middle English and later combined in modern English.
Initially, 'inconsistent' meant 'not standing firm', and 'associate' meant 'joined with'. Over time, they combined to describe something not reliably connected.
