Etymology
'individually-decided' originates from the combination of 'individual' and 'decide', where 'individual' comes from Latin 'individuus' meaning 'indivisible', and 'decide' comes from Latin 'decidere' meaning 'to cut off'.
'individually-decided' evolved from the combination of the words 'individual' and 'decide', which were used separately in Middle English and later combined in modern English.
Initially, 'individual' meant 'indivisible', and 'decide' meant 'to cut off', but over time, 'individually-decided' evolved to mean 'determined by each person separately'.
