not related to construction
Etymology
'non-constructional' originates from the prefix 'non-' meaning 'not' and the word 'constructional,' which is derived from 'construction,' meaning 'the act or process of building or assembling.'
'constructional' evolved from the Latin word 'constructio,' which meant 'a building or assembling.' The prefix 'non-' was added to form 'non-constructional,' indicating the absence of construction-related aspects.
Initially, it meant 'not related to building or assembling,' and this meaning has remained consistent in modern usage.
