unclear communication
Etymology
'indistinctly-communicated' originates from Latin, specifically the word 'indistinctus,' where 'in-' meant 'not' and 'distinctus' meant 'separated or clear.'
'indistinctus' transformed into the English word 'indistinct,' and eventually became part of the compound adjective 'indistinctly-communicated.'
Initially, it meant 'not clearly separated,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'not clearly expressed or communicated.'
