'ineptly-made' originates from the word 'inept,' which comes from Latin 'ineptus,' where 'in-' meant 'not' and 'aptus' meant 'fitting or suitable.'

'ineptus' transformed into the French word 'inepte,' and eventually became the modern English word 'inept' through Middle English.

Initially, it meant 'not suitable or fitting,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'lacking skill or competence.'
