Etymology
'insecurely-made' originates from the combination of 'insecurely' and 'made', where 'insecurely' is derived from 'insecure', meaning 'not secure', and 'made' is the past participle of 'make'.
'insecurely' evolved from the Latin word 'insecurus', meaning 'unsafe', and 'made' comes from the Old English 'macian', meaning 'to create'.
Initially, 'insecurely' meant 'without security', and 'made' meant 'created'. Together, they describe something created without security.
