wrongly provided
Etymology
'incorrectly-supplied' originates from the combination of 'incorrectly' and 'supplied'. 'Incorrectly' comes from the Latin 'incorrectus', meaning 'not corrected', and 'supplied' is derived from the Latin 'supplere', meaning 'to fill up'.
'incorrectly' changed from the Latin word 'incorrectus' and 'supplied' from 'supplere', eventually forming the modern English term 'incorrectly-supplied'.
Initially, 'incorrectly' meant 'not corrected', and 'supplied' meant 'to fill up'. Together, they evolved to mean 'provided in an incorrect manner'.
