/ˈpræktɪkli əˈdʒʌstɪd/
adapted for practical use
Etymology
'practically-adjusted' originates from the combination of 'practical' and 'adjusted', where 'practical' comes from Latin 'practicus', meaning 'fit for action', and 'adjusted' from Old French 'ajuster', meaning 'to make right'.
'practicus' transformed into the English word 'practical', and 'ajuster' became 'adjusted' in modern English.
Initially, 'practical' meant 'fit for action', and 'adjusted' meant 'to make right'. Together, they evolved to mean 'adapted in a practical manner'.
