'inelegantly-crafted' originates from the combination of 'inelegant' and 'crafted'. 'Inelegant' comes from Latin 'inelegans', where 'in-' meant 'not' and 'elegans' meant 'tasteful'. 'Crafted' is derived from Old English 'cræftan', meaning 'to make or build'.

'Inelegantly-crafted' evolved from the combination of 'inelegant' and 'crafted', both of which have roots in Latin and Old English, respectively.

Initially, 'inelegant' meant 'not tasteful', and 'crafted' meant 'made or built'. Together, they describe something made without grace or refinement.
