'intentionally-discovered' originates from the combination of 'intentionally' and 'discovered', where 'intentionally' comes from Latin 'intentio' meaning 'a stretching out' and 'discovered' from Old French 'descovrir' meaning 'to uncover'.

'intentionally' changed from Latin 'intentio' to Old French 'intencion', and eventually became the modern English word 'intentionally'. 'Discovered' evolved from Old French 'descovrir' to Middle English 'discoveren'.

Initially, 'intentionally' meant 'with intention or purpose', and 'discovered' meant 'to uncover or reveal'. The combined form retains these meanings.
