'intermittently-examined' originates from the combination of 'intermittently' and 'examined'. 'Intermittently' comes from Latin 'intermittere', where 'inter-' meant 'between' and 'mittere' meant 'to send'. 'Examined' comes from Latin 'examinare', where 'ex-' meant 'out' and 'agmen' meant 'a driving'.

'Intermittently' changed from the Latin word 'intermittere' and eventually became the modern English word 'intermittently'. 'Examined' transformed from the Latin word 'examinare' and eventually became the modern English word 'examined'.

Initially, 'intermittently' meant 'to send between', but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'at irregular intervals'. 'Examined' initially meant 'to weigh or consider', but now it means 'to inspect or scrutinize'.
