The word 'late-restored' is a compound formed in English from 'late' and 'restored.' 'Late' comes from Old English 'læt,' meaning 'after the expected time,' and 'restored' is the past participle of 'restore,' from Latin 'restaurare,' meaning 'to rebuild or renew.'

'Late-restored' is a modern English compound, combining the adjective 'late' and the past participle 'restored.' The use of hyphenated adjectives is common in English to describe something with two qualities.

The meaning has remained consistent, referring to something that was restored after a delay or later than usual.
