'inequitably-announced' is a compound word combining 'inequitably' and 'announced'. 'Inequitably' originates from Latin, specifically the word 'aequitas', meaning 'equality'. 'Announced' comes from Latin 'annuntiare', where 'ad-' meant 'to' and 'nuntiare' meant 'report'.

'Inequitably' evolved from the Latin 'aequitas' through Old French 'inequité', while 'announced' transformed from Latin 'annuntiare' to Old French 'anoncer', eventually becoming the modern English 'announce'.

Initially, 'inequitably' meant 'without equality', and 'announced' meant 'to make known'. Together, they convey the idea of making something known in an unfair manner.
