/ɪnˈtɛnʃənəli kənˈdɛmnd/
deliberately declared wrong
Etymology
'intentionally-condemned' originates from the combination of 'intentionally' and 'condemned'. 'Intentionally' comes from Latin 'intentio', meaning 'a stretching out', and 'condemned' from Latin 'condemnare', meaning 'to sentence'.
'Intentionally' evolved from Middle English 'entencioun', and 'condemned' from Old French 'condemner'.
Initially, 'intentionally' meant 'with intention', and 'condemned' meant 'to sentence'. Together, they evolved to mean 'deliberately declared wrong'.
