'ineffectively-done' originates from the combination of 'ineffectively' and 'done', where 'ineffectively' is derived from 'ineffective', meaning 'not producing the desired effect', and 'done' is the past participle of 'do'.

'ineffectively' evolved from the Latin word 'ineffectivus', and 'done' comes from the Old English 'don'.

Initially, 'ineffectively' meant 'without effect', and 'done' meant 'completed'. Together, they describe something completed without achieving the desired effect.
