Etymology
'inconsistently-moved' originates from the combination of 'inconsistent' and 'move', where 'inconsistent' comes from Latin 'inconsistens', meaning 'not standing firm', and 'move' from Latin 'movere', meaning 'to move'.
'inconsistently-moved' is a modern English compound word formed by combining 'inconsistent' and 'moved'.
Initially, 'inconsistent' meant 'not standing firm', but over time it evolved to mean 'lacking consistency', and 'move' has retained its meaning of 'to change position'.
