infrequently viewed
Etymology
'occasionally-watched' originates from the combination of 'occasionally,' derived from Latin 'occasio,' meaning 'a happening,' and 'watched,' from Old English 'wæccan,' meaning 'to be awake or keep watch.'
'occasionally' evolved from the Latin 'occasio' through Old French 'occasion,' and 'watched' from Old English 'wæccan,' eventually forming the modern English term 'occasionally-watched.'
Initially, 'occasionally' meant 'a happening or event,' and 'watched' meant 'to be awake or keep watch.' Over time, 'occasionally-watched' evolved to mean 'viewed from time to time.'
