Etymology
'originally-completed' is a compound word formed from 'originally' and 'completed'. 'Originally' comes from the Latin 'originem', meaning 'beginning or source', and 'completed' comes from the Latin 'completus', meaning 'filled up or finished'.
'Originally' evolved from the Latin 'originem' through Old French 'origine', and 'completed' evolved from Latin 'completus' through Old French 'completer'.
Initially, 'originally' meant 'from the beginning', and 'completed' meant 'finished'. The compound 'originally-completed' retains these meanings in modern usage.
