self-created
Etymology
'independently-produced' originates from the combination of 'independent' and 'produce,' where 'independent' comes from Latin 'independens,' meaning 'not dependent,' and 'produce' from Latin 'producere,' meaning 'to bring forth.'
'independent' evolved from the Latin 'independens' through Old French 'independant,' and 'produce' from Latin 'producere' through Middle English 'producen.'
Initially, 'independent' meant 'not dependent on others,' and 'produce' meant 'to bring forth.' Together, they evolved to mean 'created without external control.'
