Etymology
'irregularly-conveyed' originates from the combination of 'irregularly' and 'conveyed'. 'Irregularly' comes from the Latin 'irregularis', meaning 'not regular', and 'conveyed' is derived from the Old French 'conveier', meaning 'to carry or transport'.
'Irregularly' changed from the Latin 'irregularis' to the Middle English 'irreguler', and 'conveyed' evolved from the Old French 'conveier' to the Middle English 'conveien'.
Initially, 'irregularly' meant 'not regular', and 'conveyed' meant 'to carry or transport'. Over time, 'irregularly-conveyed' evolved to describe something communicated in a non-standard manner.
