Etymology
'passionately-constructed' originates from the combination of 'passionately' and 'constructed'. 'Passionately' comes from 'passion', which originates from Latin 'passio', meaning 'suffering or enduring'. 'Constructed' comes from Latin 'constructus', meaning 'to build or arrange'.
'Passionately' evolved from Middle English 'passioun', while 'constructed' evolved from Middle English 'constructen'.
Initially, 'passionately' meant 'with suffering', but over time it evolved to mean 'with intense emotion'. 'Constructed' has largely retained its original meaning of 'built or arranged'.
