Etymology
'non-event-focused' originates from the prefix 'non-' meaning 'not,' combined with 'event,' from Latin 'eventus,' meaning 'outcome,' and 'focused,' from Latin 'focus,' meaning 'hearth' or 'center.'
'Non-event-focused' is a modern English term formed by combining 'non-' with 'event-focused,' which itself evolved from the Latin 'eventus' and 'focus.'
Initially, 'event-focused' meant 'centered around events,' and the addition of 'non-' negates this meaning, indicating a lack of emphasis on events.
